Summary— A technique is described for investigating the internal structure of the prostate gland (including calcification) by projection X‐ray microscopy (microradiography). The results show that the technique can be used in conjunction with the corresponding histological preparations to complement the examination of the prostate gland by demonstrating tissue density and the structure and location of microcalcification < 5 μm in diameter.
