. Journal of roentgenology . from variousmethods of diagnosis which renders valuable and reliablediagnosis and prognoses. It is of the utmost importance that findings from anymethod of diagnosis be properly recorded for consideration. Roentgen methods offer more findings of value in deter-mining the character, location and extent of parenchymallesions than all other methods combined. No method or collection of methods in diagnosis will soclearly reveal the antemortem pathology as compared withthe postmortem anatomical and pathological diagnosis. Roentgen findings, frequently recorded, seem almost in-dispensable to the clinician in the proper treatment andmanagement of cases. It is my hope that by accurately recording the true path-ological lesions, their character, extent, location, size, num-ber, age and activity, utilizing any or all methods of diag-nosis we may be in a position to classify tuberculosis of thelungs in such a manner as to permit its universal adoption.
