Not so early radiologic practices

["Greg & Claudia Yuhas" <uhaskep@castles.com>]

Dr Julian raises an ugly point.  X-ray treatment for acne was common through
the 1960's.  I suspect that more young women than young men were treated.  I
also suspect that some of the treating physicians knew little about the dose
delivered or distribution of scattered radiation.  Has anyone done a follow
study on this group?
