It is difficult to remember how things changed in the last 125 years, maybe 4 generations, and the advances in science that resulted in big changes in health care!
In the hospital of l’Hôtel-Dieu at Beaune the doctors followed in the path of Mme Curie in improving the technique of using X-Rays for looking at the problems in the aftermath of the WWI, goo.gl/maps/jdd4Pt7aW…
