Laboratories behind the Doctor by Sir Charles Dodds ,
M.V.O., F.R.S.
Courtauld Professor of Biochemistry in the University of London
New scientific discoveries are continually being adapted to help the doctor. Tests that once took a skilled scientist a day to carry out, and so were impracticable, are now done by the dozen in an hour bv a technician and have consequently become routine aids. Sir Charles selects a number of techniques that have been introduced in recent years and shows how they help the doctor to reach a sound diagnosis.
