Title
Some Roentgenologic Considerations Pertaining To Upper Extremity Pain
Description

CAPTAIN CHARLES F. BEHRENS (MC), U.S.N.
Chief of Radiologic Service, U. S. Naval Hospital Bethesda, MD.

It probably seems a bit odd and perhaps disappointing that a naval medical officer should deal with such a topic as upper extremity pain in times of war, when the fury of combat dominates the scene and the reek of gunpowder or trinitrotoluene fills the atmosphere. One would naturally expect or hope for a consideration of matters more specifically military. In extenuation of my offense, I would like to point out that we can now afford less than ever to neglect the more prosaic and less glamorous fields of medical activity, for such neglect means the sapping of efficiency. The incidence of pain and disability involving the upper extremity is fairly high- just how high is difficult to say, since many cases are treated in an outpatient status and are not reflected in vital statistics with any approach to full measure. Many of these patients are seriously handicapped , are thoroughly miserable and at the same time have important duties . With all this in mind, I hope you will not take my efforts amiss.
