Clinical signs should always be taken into account. 240 RADIOGRAPHY Fractures of the Orbital Region are very difficult to detail niust be obtained, and care should be exercised to obtain radio-graphs which show no evidence of movement on the part of the is often a matter of difficulty, because patients suffering from injury tothe skull and brain are not likely to keep the head steady long enoughto allow of a sufficient exposure ; hence in these cases very rapid exposuresare indicated, and intensifying screens should be used to cut down theexposure to the minimum. The orbital margins should be carefully examinedto detect shght departures from the normal, which may be the only evidenceof fracture. Stereoscopic plates will
