In order toattain the best results, the examiner should have had thorough experiencein this line of work. The fluoroscope should first be used, to demonstratethe presence of the foreign body. The hood is next removed from thescreen, and the latter used sep-arately, in the same position aswhen first located. A mark,made by an indelible pencil, isplaced on the part directly overthe spot where the shadow ofthe foreign body presents itself,this mark being directly behindthe screen. A second mark is made onthe opposite side of the membercorresponding to the area of theforeign body. These marks, ly-ing in an even plane, should beboth marked 1 and depth of tissue in which thebullet lies is next ascertained by moving the screen slightly up anddown; if the shadow of the foreign body moves considerably, it indi-cates that the foreign object is deeply imbedded. On the contrary,if the shadow
