Notes for a history of radiology in Matanzas: continuators and development in some localities
Keywords:
radiology, history of radiology, history of medicine, Matanzas, CubaAbstract
Introduction: radiology, including the new ways of obtaining medical images for prognosis and procedures guidance, is one of the specialties that more scientific-technological development has experienced throughout the history of the medical sciences. It was established in Matanzas in the second decade of the 20th century by a group of precursor figures and institutions, to which were added others that have maintained the discipline up to these days.
Objective: to rescue elements of the history of radiology in the province of Matanzas, related to those who continued the work of the precursors.
Materials and methods: typical methods of the historical research such as analytic-synthetic and deductive-inductive were used, and well as chronological and geographic sub-methods.
Results: thirteen records and twenty-three annotations were presented that constitute a synthetic characterization of the object of study.
Conclusions: in the history of radiology in Matanzas, names such as those of doctors Mario Munoz Monroy and Manuel Garcia Suarez stand out in the immediate stage after precursors; the first, because of his dimension as a martyr, and the second, although he also opposed dictatorships, because of his scientific-pedagogical projection. The specialty reached its true social charge in the 1960’s, and has experienced a sustained progress, the magnitude of which has depended on external and internal limitations.Downloads
