This volume contains the Proceedings of a Conference on Scientific
Aids in Hospital Diagnosis held at Oxford in April 1975. The
Conference, organised on inter-disciplinary lines, was the fourth
to be organised by the U. K. Liaison Committee for Sciences allied
to Medicine and Biology (SAMB). The subject matter is divided into
six sections: Investiga tions in Pathology, Radiation Diagnostics,
New Diagnostic Tech niques in Special Departments, Clinical
Measurements in Wards, Coordination and Communication of Results,
and finally Ergonomic Contributions to Medical Diagnosis. Session
IV may be found of particular interest as it puts the point of view
of the nurses who have to operate so many of the new machines and
pieces of equipment, often under stressful conditions. We were
fortunate in having as our Guest Speaker, Sir George Godber, Former
Chief Medical Officer to the Department of Health and Social
Security. Sir George's career has spanned the time during which
very many scientific technqiues have been in troduced into medicine
and few people could be better qualified to give an overall picture
of the present situation."
