چکیده

We have recently completed investigations into the effects of acute illness and of starvation on the skeletal development of albino rats of the Sprague-Dawley strain (Acheson & Macintyre, 1958a, b ; Acheson, 1959). In planning this work we found it necessary to devise our own methods and techniques for frequent measurement and radiography of rats. The techniques proved to be satisfactory and we therefore submit a description of them together with some results obtained by their use.
