INTERPRETATION OF RADIOGRAMS 143 for our patients we are now entering upon a period ofgreater conservatism as a result of past experience anda more accurate knowledge of the subject which this ex-perience has brought. One eminent investigator* in this field has demon-strated a very important fact in regard to radiographicvariations which the student should bear in mind, viz.,that infection is not the only cause for radiographic vari-ations in films and that infection and inflammation arenot necessarily synonymous. In radiographic variations,.

These are the peridental membrane, showing as 1922. *Dr. Joseph Pollia.
