. A radiographic atlas of the pathologic changes of bones and joints . henever from the nature of the part (hip, spine, shoulder,ribs, clavicle, scapula), or from ankylosis or deformity (fixedflexed knee, etc.), only one view can be made, this should be donewith the part lying as close to the plate as possible and in as nearthe normal position as possible. In such cases a correct diagnosiscan, as a rule, only be made after a careful study of the skia-grams and after comparison with normal skiagrams (Plates LXIIand LXVI). l62—■ PLATE LVIII. FRACTURE OF THE RIGHT FEMUR—ANTERO-POSTERIOR VIEW—SAME CASE ASPLATE LIX. A shadow darker than that of the soft parts, but not as dark as thatof the bone, can be seen on each side of the femur, about midway betweenits epiphyseal line and the upper border of the skiagram. At that samepoint the bone shadow is much darker. The explanation of these shadows is seen in the next Philc. The firstshadow is due to callous formation, and the darker shadow of the boneis due to overlapping of the fractured ends of the PLATE LVIII. — 164 — PLATE LIX. FRACTURE OF THE RIGHT FEMUR—LATERAL VIEW—SAME CASE AS PLATE LVIU. The fractured ends of the femur overlap and are displaced in anantero-posterior direction. Callous is thrown out from the ends of both fragments and holds thebones together.
