Following the example of the first two volumes, which I abstracted in detail in 1926 and 27, the present volume III also contains a large number (11) of detailed articles on radiodiagnostics and 4 articles on biology and therapy, including one on diathermy. Considering the urgent need to give a complete review of the technique of radiography of the nasal and ear appendages in the diagnosis of inflammatory diseases and tumors of the nose, upper jaw and ear, the editors placed in the first chapter 2 articles by Prof. Stetuerer on radiographic diagnostics of the nasal and ear appendages. Already in 1896, this author tried to guide in the appendicular nasal cavities by roentgen, but only 10 years later prominent rhinologists (Goldmann, Kilian and others) became interested in this technique. Since then, the roentgenogram became an indispensable part of the patient's examination for the rhinologist. There are known cases when endonasal examination was inconclusive and the X-ray revealed a picture of a tumor, abscess, or fracture, which were then confirmed by surgery.
