10 The Health Bulletin but in the great majority of cases a correlation of all possible data is necessary. Occasionally the X-ray will show a definite lesion which is pathologically active when there are no definite physical signs or clinical symptoms. Rarely also the X-ray will show an active lesion at an apex where there are no abnormal physical signs, but where there are suspicions or definite signs at the opposite apex. With extreme rarity a case will show tubercle bacilli in the sputum which has no definite physical signs and no demonstrable lesion by the X-ray. Lung lesions limited to the base, which in the adult are almost always nontuberculous, are occasionally found by the X-ray to be definitely tuberculous. When the X-ray shows no abnormal density, or a density not characteristic of tuberculosis, physical signs at the base can with much greater surety be ascribed to som-e other cause. In moderately and far-advanced disease the X-ray almost always shows the lesions to be more extensive than the physical examination by the most careful clinicians. The X-ray also shows much more accurately the character of the pathological processes. Cavities of even moderate size may occasionally give no physical signs and be discovered by the X-ray. Small localized pneumothoraces, interlobar pleurisy, scattered areas of calcification, caseation, and many of the other pathological changes which may give only obscure or no physical signs, can be determined, both in character, location and extent, by stereoscopic X-ray plates with a degree of precision which makes a careful X-ray examination in well-developed tuberculosis almost the equivalent of a living autopsy. ...................
