Motion picture X-ray at Paris hospital shows patient's limbs moving

The video discusses the evolution of X-ray imaging, highlighting the need for capturing movements of bones and internal organs. It introduces a special lens with a large opening that enables the creation of X-ray motion pictures. Although not perfect, this method is practical and accessible to radiologists. The video also emphasizes the significance of imaging internal organs in action, marking a significant advancement in medical diagnostics.
