229 injections of N.A.B. were given.
In addition to the above Clinics, Venereal cases were seen at the Out-patient Departments of the various Hospitals and Dispensaries.
X-RAY DEPARTMENT.
Dr. Farr was in charge during the year assisted by Miss Siggins C.S.M.M.G., B.P.A., as Masseuse Electro-therapist and Mr. J. Skinner B.P.A., as Radiographer.
A considerable amount of new equipment was ordered and some of it was delivered towards the end of the year. It is expected that early next year X-ray, Massage, and Electrical treatment, will be available at each of the Hospitals. In addition to the fixed installations, portable X-ray apparatus has been provided at both the Civil and Kowloon Hospitals.
Radium.-At the suggestion of Dr. J. H. Montgomery, Medical Superintendent of the Matilda Hospital, the Committee of that Institute have purchased a supply of radium and generously made it available for use in all hospitals of the Colony, free of charge. Advantage was taken of this and many cases of cancer were treated, mainly in the University Clinic under the supervision of Professor K. H. Digby. Though many of the cases were far advanced some spectacular results were obtained.
