Of the 4,897 radiological examinations 3,682 were done at the Government Civil Hospital and 1,215 at the Kowloon Hospital as compared with 3,133 and 858 in the previous year.
349. The increase in the number of massage and electrical treatment cases was most marked at Kowloon where the new rooms—provided at the expense of an already inadequate clinical accommodation—afforded better facilities for treatment than were formerly available.
