The life of Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen.
This year, 1995, marks the centennial of the discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen on the historical date of that discovery, November 8, 1895 [1]. After completing my radiology residency at Brooke General Hospital, I was assigned to the U.S. Army 5th General Hospital in Stuttgart Bad Cannstatt, West Germany. This period of payback was from October 1966 to August 1969. During these memorable years, the opportunity presented itself for me to make a pilgrimage to every location associated with the life of Roentgen. It is my pleasure to share that pilgrimage with you.
