S. A. WILLSON, Senior Registrar in Radiology, J. A. COLES, Senior Registrar in Geriatric Medicine* and G. P. J. BEYNON, Consultant in Geriatric Medicine

The Middlesex Hospital Mortimer Street, London W1 N 8AA
* Present appointment: Consultant in Geriatric Medicine, St James' Hospital, Sarsfield Road, London SW12.

Computerized tomography, isotope imaging and ultrasonography are available for the investigation of elderly patients at the Middlesex Hospital. Over a six-month period there were 360 acute admissions to the Geriatric Department and 100 specialist imaging techniques were used in their investigation. The pattern of presentation of these patients and results of specialist techniques are presented. Sick elderly patients should have ready access to modern non-invasive imaging techniques.
