The author draws the attention of practical doctors to the results of treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcers (more than 100 own observations) with X-rays. 10-14 days after application of one series of illumination (4 times a week in small doses) independent pains disappear (without preliminary reaction), appetite quickly appears, bleeding stops (several hours after the first illumination), and spastic constipation, which are companions of stomach and duodenal ulcers, disappears. As for the pains of pressure and hyperacidity, they remain for a while, but subsequently also disappear.
