CLINICAL AND RADIOLOGICAL STUDY 163 having been established, it is indispensable to use this sameradioscopic examination for information as to the generalposition: whether the projectile is intra-thoracic, in thelung or in the pleura; or only in the wall. Radioscopic examination sometimes suffices; if not, thefindings should be supplemented by exact is especially difficult when projectiles are at a tangent orat the extreme base. For projectiles at a tangent it oughtto be determined whether the projectile is found withinor without the costal grill by a series of oblique examina-tions with normal rays, used as near as possible. For projectiles at the extreme base, situated in the cul-de-sac, it is sometimes difficult to establish their location,whether above or below the diaphragm. Examinationswith forced inspiration and expiration are the most useful,but are no
