[The value of xeroradiography (author's transl)].

Equally good pictures of the bone were proved in 2800 xeroradiographs as in roentgen film, but at the same time the soft parts around the bone and their pathological changes were well portrayed. Additional information is obtained in the radiodiagnosis of the nasal sinus system, the upper airways, the breast and the soft parts of the head, neck and extremities. Xerotomography of the skull and especially of the lungs is superior to film tomogoraphy.
