About This Item
Weigel was an Orthopedic Surgeon in the state of New York who died early at the age of 52 from the effects of X-rays. First diagnosed in 1904 with malignancies in his hands, he died in May, 1906 after a number of amputations were performed to try and remove malignancies that appeared as a result of his exposures. Many early practitioners were exposed to levels of radiation that would cause serious concern were they used today. Nonetheless, the early, practical uses of the machines and how they worked are important to our historical understanding of a rapidly evolving field.
