FIG. I. the radiograph only could tell where itwas. It went in at the lower part of thethumb, and lodged in the interspaceformed by the third and fourth metacar-pal bones, where it was readily located. The third radiograph is that of an oldladys hand, she having fallen downstairs and supposed that she hadsprained her wrist. The radiographtells the true nature of her injury. Thisis one of several Colles fractures, which might have been treated as a sprain,and it is remarkable how often an im-pacted fracture is so mistaken, and onlydiscovered after weeks of needless suf-fering. The fourth that I send you is anotherneedle in the hand and again the old sto-ry. The woman was washing clothesand on the scrub board while rubbinghard, she found that some one had useda needle instead of a pin in some clothes

I am astonished at the largenumber of needles that find their wayinto peoples hands in various ways. THE AMERICAN X-RAY JOURNAL. 57i There is such satisfaction in knowingjust what you have and being able tohelp the patient immediately, that I cannot see how any physician can do with-out some kind of an x-ray apparatus,and how can the managers of a hospitalthat claims to afford succor to thosethat meet with sudden accidents only,do their duty to the public and their pa-tients unless they have proper radio-graphic apparatus. Surely the day is fast
The American X-Ray Journal was the first radiology journal in the United States. Its first issue was published in May 1897, its founder and first editor was an American physician Heber Robarts (1852–1922), who took an early keen interest in the new Roentgen rays. Robarts was also a co-founder of the Roentgen Society of the United States, the forerunner of the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS). In its earliest days the journal struggled to attract any important articles as the majority of the pioneering researchers in the fledgling field of x-rays would prefer to see their work published in the established medical journals. The initial subscription rate for the new journal was one dollar per annum (payable in advance) or two dollars for overseas subscribers. Alternatively, it was ten cents per issue, or twenty cents for readers outside the US. In 1902, Harry Preston Pratt, an American physician from Chicago with an interest in electrotherapy, purchased the American X-Ray Journal from Dr Robarts. In 1904, the American X-Ray Journal subsumed the Archives of Electrology and Radiology (which had previously been the American Electro-Therapeutic and X-Ray Era). Following this, the journal was re-named and re-focussed as the American Journal of Progressive Therapeutics, and this published its last edition in January 1906.
