(1) Epithelioma of Anus Treated by Radium

Notes on Cases Treated with Radium

Pathological study of retinoblastoma treated by radon seeds and radium disks.

(1) Electro-magnetic vibration. Light. Roentgen rays. (2) Corpuscular radiation. a and P rays. Neutrons. That part of the Arndt-Schulze law which states that small doses of radiation stimulate cell proliferation is strongly disputed in the literature of radio-biology; in fact Strangeways and Hopwood (1926) found no evidence of any stimulating effect by x rays on cells in tissue culture and this...

Epithelioma Adamantinum

from the Clinical History.--The patient, female, aged thirty years, was admitted to St. Joseph's Hospital. Two years and three months ago she first noticed a small, hard tumor near the first bicuspid tooth on the left side of the lower jaw bone. It grew slowly. In childhood there was nothing unusual about her teeth, which were perfectly regular and even up to the time of her present illness. Ex...

Cytostatic activity of aeroplysinin-1 against lymphoma and epithelioma cells.

(+/-)-Aeroplysinin-1, an optically active 1,2-dihydroarene-1,2-diol, was isolated from the marine sponges Verongia aerophoba (+-isomer) and Ianthella ardis (- -isomer). For the experiments presented we used the +-isomer from Verongia aerophoba. Here we describe the hitherto unknown biological and pharmacological property of this compound to display pronounced anticancer activity against L5178y ...

Cases Treated by Radium in the Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh, during 1912

is administered, and the patient is sent away and told to report himself in two or three weeks, for the full effect of any dose is not manifested for three or more weeks. Another dose, if necessary, is then given, and the patient is again sent away for a fortnight. I have not time at this meeting to refer to the question of dosage or of screens. The cases which have been most benefited during t...
