Therapy of tinea capitis; the value of x-ray epilation.

Roentgen ray epilation, which is at present the most important single weapon against M. audouini infection of the scalp, should not be withheld except in special circumstances, from a child who has the disease. It can quickly cure the disease and halt spread from one child to another. Harmful sequelae and medicolegal complications can be averted by competent use of the method and simple precautions.
