The great objection to Chadwicks table is the lack ofmechanism for obtaining the lateral inclination. It should be remem-bered that the office lounge or sola is simply a makeshift, and the phy-sician will find that it rarely requires any persuasion to induce his patientto recline on his table, provided she be assured that no unnecessary expo-sure is entailed. Next in importance is the securing of the proper position, as will benoted farther on, and preliminary to the position is the loosening of thecorsets and clothing, so that the abdomen may be readily accessible to Fig. 114.
