X rays were first used medically to study the bones and ca be very helpful. Quite often, however, they tell the doctor nothing that he does not already know, or at least nothing that alter what he is going to recommend. A tremendous number of X rays are done simply because some members of the general public, and lawyers in particular, seem to think that a doctor is neglected his duty if he has not had an X-ray picture taken.
Radium and radiotherapy have roughly nothing to offer you in treating your rheumatism. |
