The Chest X-Ray

DAN G. MORSE F.C.C.P.1

1 Hattiesburg, Mississippi

223,182 chest x-rays are reviewed. The incidence of disqualifying chest disease is about 1.0 per cent. The incidence of active tuberculosis is about 0.3 per cent, the majority of which are early and treatable, thus demonstrating once again that mass x-raying is a practical and excellent method of case-finding. It is very probable that universal x-ray surveys will be the method of choice employed by health departments and tuberculosis agencies in the future.
