Fig. 2.—Represents an x-ray photograph of thesubject presenting pelvic phleboliths situatedadjacent to the ureter distinct in contour, dimen-sions and location, as indicated bilaterally by thehands. These phleboliths should be reversed, thethree phleboliths belong on the left side. duced in my case by the phleboliths Dr.Robert S. Gregg, who has performed myx-ray work in Dr. Pratts laboratory foryears, secured an x-ray from a patientwith some ten shadows of phleboliths,which is also here presented. Some ex-perience with x-ray work will enable oneto differentiate between skiagraphs of aphlebolith and of a ureteral calculus. Thex-ray is an epoch-making advance in thediagnosis of ureteral calculus. However,we have learned more from our error dueto the phlebolith than from ten correctdiagnoses of ureteral calculus. We are sorry for the inconvenience thatour erroneous diagnosis caused to the pa-tient; however, it was the price of prog-ress. by Dr. Robert S. Gregg in Dr. Pratts Laboratory.
