The Unknown Ray
In a totally dark room the professor
held out his hand and saw the out
line of his finger bones. He had been
making experiments on radiation
when he found that his apparatus pro
duced an invisible ray which could
“see” through substances which no
other light could penertate. With that
notorious ray he could photograph
i a y beneath the surface of his
own skin.
When Professor Wilhelm Conrad
Eoentgen reported his discovery to the
scientific world, he spoke of it as X
ray because of its unknown quality.
Imagine the excitement of scientists
all over the world in 1895 as they read
about the new discovery and began to
think of the many ways it could be
used.
The average man was as interested
as the scientist. Some modest ladies
were afraid Peeping Toms might arm
themselves with X-ray cameras. But
most people were quick to recognize
how tremendously valuable the X-ray
could be to medicine. First used for
accurate diagnosis of injuries and di-|
seases of the bones, soon technical
improvements in the apparatus per
mitted study of other parts of the
body.
During this same period, the fight
against tuberculosis was being or
ganized. Here and there, state and lo
cal societies were formed to combat
what was then the most serious health
problem in the United States. Final
ly in 1904 came the organization of
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of Tuberculosis, later
re-named the National Tuberculosis
Association.
The young organization early recog
nized that the X-ray was to be one
of the most important weapons in the
attack on tuberculosis. Here was a
means of detecting the disease before
outward symptoms appeared. The in
nocent spread of TB germs by peo
ple with unsuspected TB could be
checked. The disease discovered in
its early stages could most easily and
quickly be cured.
However, the X-ray was still a cum
bersome, expensive process. To find
the unknown cases of TB, it had to
be brought to the people. This need
was met in the early 1940’s by the de
velopment of small-film X-ray equip
ment that could be transported from
place to place. Since then, hundreds
of thousands of Americans have had
scagening X-rays by which possible
c TB are sifted out of the gen
era population. The professor’s ray
is no longer “unknown.” I
