A cross-indexing system is inextricably related to the method of handling the roentgen-ray records; indexing is valueless unless the records are filed so as to be readily available when located within the scheme of codification. 3. A cross-indexing system must be simple both in respect to the clerical effort involved and in the fineness of its subdivisions. Inordinately detailed categorization is impracticable and may result in the expenditure of excessive labor in maintaining the system.
