Note: Missing page 118. / The widespread use of mass roentgenographic surveys in the past decade has led to an increase in the proportion of individuals having few or doubtful clinical signs and symptoms of tuberculosis. It is difficult and often impossible to demonstrate the presence of the tubercle bacillus in the excreta of such individuals by the use of cultural methods in common laboratory use. Since recovery of the tubercle bacillus admits of no further uncertainty in the diagnosis, its detection in doubtful cases has an importance which can scarcely be overestimated.
