 And on the always free Pulse of NHF. Saturday mornings with Mike and the Haas on the Pulse of New Hampshire. It's December 22nd, 1895. Less than two months before, Professor Willem Roentgen discovered x-rays by accident. Months later, he discovered a new use for x-rays that would change the course of history. Roentgen took an x-ray of his wife's hand. This was the very first x-ray of a human body part and showcased how x-rays could be useful in the medical field. And American Fences was there.
