The part of the bone destroyedby the abscess absorbs comparatively little of the rays, sothat these darken the corresponding part of the sensitivefilm to a degree more or less marked, according to the sizeand depth of the abscess cavity. Fig. 10S is an illustration of both destruction of boneand absorption of the end of the root of the affected molar. One or more broaches inserted into the nerve canal andextending through the apical foramen of the affected rootswill often show the operator through which of them com-munication with the abscess cavity has been established.
