The foregoing statements regarding the mounting of negatives onthe stereoscope for observation, and the possibilities of changing theoperators position of observation thereby are difficult to follow. I would,therefore, advise those who wish to take up this work to make test orexperimental cases by stereoscopically radiographing the hand with a coin. Fig. 472. Enlarging apparatus. on it, carrying the hand radiographs through the process of enlargement,and then observing them in different ways in the stereoscope. As I have stated elsewhere stereoscopic work, be- ■SfijHPflfAfiffi cause of its difficulty will remain principally in themethods to Dentistry. ,,./ „, t- r , ■ hands or specialists. Ihe practice of making en-largements renders dental stereoscopic radiography a definite successin cases where heretofore it has been a failure. Stereoscopic work remainstoo expensive to come into general use, but for those who can afford itthe service is worth the fee which must be charged for it. I have heard the statement made repeatedly that the two negativeswhich are exposed simultaneously in the same film packet can be mountedand observed with a stereoscope, and that a stereoscopic effect is may be compelled to change my mind sometime but right now I mav STEREOS
