Abstract
WE deeply regret to record the death of Dr. Robert Knox on Sept. 21, at sixty years of age. Knox was born at Leith, and obtained his medical education at Edinburgh and Guy's Hospital. After a short period of work in general practice he became definitely associated with the very young subject of medical radiology, and throughout the rest of his life we may say that he was linked with every important movement in this branch of medicine. With characteristic thoroughness his interests extended to every ramification of the subject; whether it was a question of hospital equipment or the association of the laboratory with clinical work or the status of radiologists, Knox would be found on the appointed committee, and he would be there in committee as member, secretary, or chairman. This went on for years, and until quite recently he appeared to carry the load lightly.
