The history of radiotherapy in The Netherlands.

Soon after the discovery of x-rays by W. C. Roentgen in 1895, a publication on fluoroscopy and x-ray pictures/films appeared in the Dutch medical literature in February 1896. The present article reviews the subsequent developments in the field of therapeutic radiology in The Netherlands and, in particular, the evolution of radiation oncology as a distinct medical specialty.

[History of the treatment of snoring].

The history of snoring can be divided into three major periods. First, there was a prehistoric phase during which everything was ignored and in which there was no interest in knowing anything. We call this "le repos du guerrier'. Sleep was regarded mainly as a phase of recovery, and there was no question of related problems. A second period began about the beginning of this century: they still did not know anything, but it was felt that something needed to be done. Multiple types of therapy were attempted. This was a time in which research extended in all directions. Modern times began in the middle of this century with the first serious work of medical scientists who discovered and defined the sleep apnea syndrome, the UPPP, the CPAP, etc.
