BOSTON, Mass.-Ultra-violet
microscope for studying human
tissues in true colors to be Of
great aid in the fight on cancer
was advanced by DR.. Edwin H.
Land, president of the Polariod
Corporation of Cambridge, Mass.
DR.. Land, speaking at lunch
con Of the American Cancer So
cietH said microscope would
allow researchers to note color
differences between healthy and
disased tissues. Heretofore, It's
sues have been strained with
chemicals to note color varia-
tons at the risk of inducing
chemical changes in the tissues.
Since many diseases, includ
ing cancer, caused tissues to
change colors, even at early
stages, DR.. Land said the new
instrument might prove an i'm
portant contribution to the fight
against that and other maladies.
