Movements of Stomach after Bismuth Meal
An early medical imaging film

Overview
This early medical imaging film consists of X-ray footage of a pulsing human stomach following ingestion of an antacid. X-ray photography was still a relatively new innovation in 1914, and such images would have been quite a novelty for audiences.
