PERCUSSION, or the art of striking a part of the body so as to beget a sound useful for the discovery of disease, has been practised from the earliest times. Employed at first in the diagnosis of abdominal diseases (to distinguish tympanites from ascites1), it was not until the middle of the last century that percussion was applied to the discrimination of the diseases of the chest.
