Abstract
AUTOBADIOGBAPHY of the thyroid gland has been carried out by various methods : (1) mounting sections of tissues containing radioactive iodine on glass slides, applying these slides with pressure against the emulsion of a photographic plate1 ; (2) melting photographic emulsion and pouring it over a section2 ; (3) mounting the sections directly on the photographic emulsion3; and (4) a modification of (2), by removing from its base Ilford half-tone thin film, dry-stripping emulsion and mounting it on top of the slide-bearing sections4.
