Roentgen examination of children is facilitated by video-fluoroscopy and 70-mm. fluorography. Examination time is shortened; radiation dose to patient is reduced; motion blurring can be eliminated; with serial filming, functional studies can be performed 70.mm. films are of good image quality. The diagnostic capability of the method has proven adequate.
