THE CLINICAL APPLICATIONS. 257 Occasionally tlie styloid process carries with it when fractured apart of the dorsal border of the radius ; this is known as Bartons frac-ture. Colless fracture is frequently associated with fractures of thestyloid process of the ulna accompanied by rupture of the triangularfibro-cartilaa-e. The Elbow-Joint. FJuoroscojiic Examination.—It is very unsatisfactory to examine theelbow in the autero-posterior position with the ordinary fluoroscope, asthe curvature of the part prevents a close approximation of the meet this difficulty it is necessary to employ a small tubular fluoro-scope which fits snugly the anterior surface of the joint. A disadvan-tage of this fluoroscope is the small area brought into view. To obviatethis the author has devised a flexible fluoroscope which, when
