FILM STRIP IN MEDICINE
The possible development of the use of film strip in medicine has occupied the minds of responsible authorities for some considerable time. Research has shown that the assimilation of factual knowledge requires the use of numerous text books and references by teachers and students which makes study a lengthy and laborious affair.
Standard lantern slides have been used considerably but are fragile, heavy to carry about and relatively costly to produce.
Film strips, on the other hand, are light and compact. Nearly 500 pictures may be reproduced on 30 feet of film weighing less than an ounce.
Our latest film strip in the Unicorn Head Series is a visual explanation of the problem and how it may be overcome. It shows the versatility of the medium and the treatments, line diagrams, continuous tone drawings, photographs, radiographs, etc., which can be adopted as circumstances demand for both amateur and professional production.
The final frames of the strip show how pictures are linked together to illustrate a subject — in this case the diagnostic procedures in relation to epigastric pain.
'Film Strip in Medicine' was used as a demonstration strip at a recent joint meeting of members of the Royal Society of Medicine and the Scientific Film Association. The Unicorn Head 'Flotation' strip was also shown to demonstrate the advantages of film strip for teaching.
