most weekly,at which times his life seemed hopeless.At this time the patient was examinedwith the x-ray, and although the diag- nosis was not made clear, it was sufficient to nullify the claim of cancer, orother fleshy growths. The conditionwas pronounced benign, surgery wasdenied, and the patient encouraged.Three applications of the x-ray with 30minutes duration was given within aweek. The patient, after the first day,noted some immunity from pain, but itsfull effect was not evident for a month.This improved condition lasted for somesixty days. He then lapsed into a morecritical condition, and reduced to 80pounds in weight. In March and Aprilof this year he was again bathed withthe rays a few times. The x-rays werepowerful enough to cast a clear shadowof the bony structure in the fluoroscope,and the duration was 20 to 30 minutes.Sixty days after the treatment the onlychange noticed was less pain and bettersleep. Since last June the patient hasgradually regained strength and weight i!

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.
