Summary 1. The results of examination by mass miniature radiography of a quarter of a million R.A.F. and W.A.A.F. personnel followed to final diagnosis are reported. 2. Details of the organisation and technique used are outlined. 3. The total incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis was found to be 0·77 per cent. (0·28 per cent. active) in men and 0·94 per cent. (0·36 per cent. active) in women. Tuberculous cases are fully reviewed. 4. The incidence of non-tuberculous pulmonary lesions, of which the commonest is atypical pneumonia, is discussed in some detail. 5. Other conditions discovered, with special reference to congenital abnormalities, are reviewed. |
