Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a survey of therapeutic and diagnostic applications of X-rays and Finsen rays in the early 1900s. Following the groundbreaking discoveries of Finson and RÃ ntgen, the author was commissioned by the medical faculty of the University of Havana to investigate the latest advancements in phototherapy and X-ray technology across Europe before establishing a dedicated facility in Cuba. The book details his observations, including the setup of specialist departments, the variety of treatable conditions, the latest equipment, and the techniques employed at leading institutions such as the London Hospital and the Finsen Institute. The author critically evaluates the efficacy of these treatments and their side effects, acknowledging the significant progress made but also areas where further research is needed. The author argues that while X-rays and Finsen rays offer promising therapeutic avenues, their effective use requires strict adherence to scientific principles and precautions to minimize risks to both patients and medical practitioners.
