A few suggestions:
The first report of injury to a patient from a diagnostic
radiologic procedure, the victim was the Dean of Vanderbilt
Medical School:
Daniel, J. The x-rays. Science 3:562-563, 1896.
Radiation pioneers:
Brown, P. American martyrs to science through the Roentgen
Rays. C.C. Thomas Publishers, 1936.
Father of radiation protection:
Rollins, W. Notes on x-light. Privately published, Boston,
1904.
I reviewed a great deal of this material in my 1995
Hartman Centennial Lecture at the American Academy of Oral
and Maxillofacial Radiology:
Gibbs, SJ: Radiology: closing a century, opening a
millenium. Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Path Oral Radiol Endodont 81:603-606, 1996.
Hope this is helpful.
