Lister's Sounds

A boxed set of Lister's Sounds, designed by Lord Lister.

They have a characteristic "lollipop" handle and olive tip.

The rounded olive tip was safer to probe urethral strictures being less likely to cause a false passage.

This set is incomplete but, in the bottom slot, is a "stone searcher".

The stone searcher has a completely different curve.

This is a true "sound". What we tend to call sounds are usually urethral probes or dilators.
