TY - JOUR T1 - ROentgen diagnosis of diseases of the head. Y1 - 1919/02/15 N1 - 10.1001/jama.1919.02610070054034 JO - Journal of the American Medical Association SP - 516 EP - 517 VL - 72 IS - 7 N2 - Roentgenography of the skull has come to occupy an important place in the diagnosis of intracranial conditions. Schüller has studied this subject from every angle, and presents his findings in a practical rather than technical manner; his book will therefore appeal more to the clinician than to the roentgenologist. Normal conditions of the skull are excellently described and illustrated, and make it possible for any careful observer to distinguish normal variations from pathologic conditions. Chapter I reviews the normal relations as to size, shape and structure of the skull at various ages, as well as the different varieties of skulls. Chapter II treats of the irregularities in the development of the skull, the anomalies of size and shape in consequence of disturbances in growth of the skeleton, changes in structure of the bone in consequence of inflammation and new growths, and injuries of the skull.
