About this work

Description

Shows the clinical examination of four male leprosy patients (a young Indian and three elderly Eurasians). Features shown include skin blotches, testing for local anaesthesias, the premature aging and withering of the hands, taking a blood sample for bacteriological examination, etc. Includes some very striking images of leprous hands. Probably part of a longer film (with captions or commentary?). Almost certainly professionally made.
