In the second half of the 20th century, during the period of intensive development of industry in the former Yugoslavia, factory Jugorendgen (part of the Elektronska industrija Niš), was the only one in the Balkans that manufactured X-ray machines and exported them all around the world. After the break-up of Yugoslavia, time of crisis in the 1990s and later transition processes during which numerous industrial companies ceased to operate, which also included Jugorenden, at the start of the new millennium, a group of young experts established company Visaris and began developing and manufacturing a new generation of devices—digital X-ray machines. As was once the case with Jugorendgen, today, Visaris is the only manufacturer of X-ray machines in the region, and they are also present on the global market.

Music

X-ray music for the exhibition, Aleksandar Vl. Marković










But these discoveries of Roentgen, exactly of the order of the telescope and microscope, his seeing through a great thickness of an opaque substance, his recording on a sensitive plate of objects otherwise invisible, were so beautiful and fascinating, so full of promise, that all restraint was put aside, and everyone abandoned himself to the pleasures of speculation and experiment. Would but every new and worthy idea find such an echo! One single year would then equal a century of progress.
