After the exposure tothe x-ray the brain was sectioned, showing, a mass of clotted blood which en-tirely filled the left lateral ventricle; an area of white softening in the lefthemisphere corresponding to that portion of the medulla which is supplied byterminal branches of the ascending frontal artery. There were no pathologicchanges in the right cerebrum. The x-ray diagnosis was arteriosclerosis, thevessels showing marked tortuosity and irregularity; rupture of the left middle.
