In January 1896 experiments were made around the world with cathode-tubes to test Röntgen's paper "a new kind of rays". Mostly hands without pathological variations were X-rayed. At the same time in Vienna the clinical applications of X-rays were investigated. Two patients were successfully operated on after X-ray-examination. Remarkable for that time was an X-ray of an arteriogram of the arm of a dead person. It was made on 17th January 1896. The experiments with Lenard's cathode-tube were important for the discovery of X-rays. His experimentation was the inspiration for Röntgen's discovery of X-rays.
1896年1月，世界各地都在用阴极射线管进行实验，以检验伦琴的论文《一种新的射线》。大多数接受X射线检查的手部并无病理变化。与此同时，在维也纳，人们对X射线的临床应用进行了研究。两名患者在接受X射线检查后成功进行了手术。当时值得注意的是一张死人手臂血管造影的X射线照片。它拍摄于1896年1月17日。用勒纳德阴极射线管进行的实验对X射线的发现很重要。他的实验是伦琴发现X射线的灵感来源。
