Excerpt from Roentgen Diagnosis of Diseases of the Head The surgical treatment of head conditions is, or, perhaps better said, should be, limited to the specialist or to men of special surgical ability, but the diagnostic knowledge may be and should be the common property of the general practitioner For that reason this book should be of special interest. In writing the translation, effort has been made to keep it as literal as possible. To that end everything has been done to convey the intention of the author in as nearly identical wording as was within the editor's power. Where there is a possibility of confusion, footnotes have been made use of, but this has not often been necessary. The illustrations are those that were in the original work, with the addition of a few others that seemed to be advisable.

I am very pleased to have been asked to write the foreword to this book. The technical advances in diagnostic radiology in the last few decades have transformed clinical practice and have been nothing short of astonishing. The subject of diagnostic radiology is now very large and radiology depa- ments are involved in all areas of modern patient care.The defining event in m- ern radiology,and arguably the most significant development in radiology since Wilhelm Röntgen discovered X-rays, was the invention of the CT scanner in the 1970s.The CT scanner introduced modern cross-sectional imaging and also di- tal imaging.We now have MRI and ultrasound and these techniques are replacing many traditional X-ray procedures.The developments in radiology have been the result of a fruitful interaction between the basic sciences, clinical medicine and the manufacturers. This can be seen by looking at the various sources of these publications. Change is produced by the interactions between the various dis- plines. The editors have had a very difficult task in selecting the key discoveries and descriptions.The radiological literature is very large.Medical imaging continues to develop rapidly and these papers are the foundations of our current practice.
