Brain X-radiation for Childhood Epilepsy, Hydrocephalus or Mental Retardation? Research at Tuebingen University, 1940-1946 We reconstructed 65 cases out of a series of "experimental" X-ray-therapy by chart review and reanalysis of publications from a contextual historical perspective. The research procedures in the context of NS-pressure for effectiveness soon dismissed structured scientific procedures and surrendered own standards, whereas radiation impact did not transgress the contemporary guidelines.
