In the course of this workwe have been struck with the need of amethod by which the condition of the canal-system above the verumontanum can begraphically depicted without resorting toopening the vas deferens in the groin as hasbeen done by Belfield, Thomas and Pan-coast, Mills and others. With the introduction of thorium inmaking roentgenograms, it occurred to
