File:Belize City Hospital X Ray Reading 1975.jpg

English: Radiology department, Belize City Hospital, 1975. Doctor looking at X-Rays at department desk.

Seen are two X-ray light boxes on the wall above the desk where the doctor is seated. On far wall are a poster reading "Beep Beep Yuras!" intended to be humorous, a wall calendar, and a towel on a towel bar. Items atop the light box include what I think is a small hand-held adding machine. Above the light box an oscillating electric fan is mounted. There are various reference books and papers on the desk, as well as a small electric spot-light. On the nearer side are a rotary dial telephone and two ashtrays. (Note: the doctor was my father, working at the old Belize City Hospital through the CARE MEDICO program. The ashtrays were not for him but for others in the X-Ray department he shared the small office space with. He disapproved of smoking, often remarking that radiologists had the lowest rate of smoking of any profession, since they regularly looked at X-rays and could see what smoking did to peoples' lungs.)
