Journal Title: Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present an original orthopedic diagnostic method from the late 19th century developed by Franciszek Neugebauer, a distinguished Polish physician. His technique of detecting skeletal abnormalities was an excellent coping method in the time before the first diagnostic imaging method - x-ray imaging - had been invented.
