No variation has been made in connection with the methods
described and very satisfactory results continue to be obtained.
The great difficulty is the small and poor accommodation.
The only rooms which can be used for ultra-violet ray treatment
are those allocated for Clinic purposes generally, viz., the
two comparatively small rooms situated on the top floor of the
Town Hal! premises : these are only available on two sessions per
week, and considerable difficulty is experienced as the result of
overcrowding in the waiting-room : it is impossible under these
circumstances to insist upon the very necessary period of rest after
treatment before the children leave the building.
It is very unfortunate that what accommodation we have is
only available for the holding of this Clinic on two sessions and
that for the remainder of the week the apparatus is idle.
A brief summary of the cases treated by general and local
irradiation throughout the year is given on the following page.
