expensive and too big for gen.
eral hospital use. They are
in the nature of research tools
which can point the way for
specialists with smaller ma
chimes at their disposal.
The same is true of very
high-energy X-rsy machines
A few of these have been put
into use at Acc research CEN
ters. Probably the worlds big
gest is a 70-million electron
volt particle accelerator at
the University of California s
Pathological Laboratory in San
Francisco. This room filling
machine generates X-rays
nearly 1000 times as powerful
as those from a dentists ma
chine, and more than 500 times
as energetic as the kind used
for chest X-rayS.
The machine is useful not
only because it is big and pow
erful, but also because its ex-
tremely high-powered beams
behave differently from weaker
X-rays. They travel so fast
they do not burn the surface
tissues of the body, but con-
centrate their energy deep IN
side. Ninety-nine per cent of a
70 million electron volt X-ray
beam is absorbed 31a inches
beneath the skin.
One Still Alive
No one is yet able to say how
effective this machine is in
bringing about cancer cures
A cancer is considered cured

is probable that IS million

Cell-Killing Power
All radiation treatment Of
cancer is based on the power
of radiation to kill living cells
not just cancer cells. Special
types of radiation and special
methods of their employment
have been devised to wipe out
the bad tissues while sparing
the good.
Artificial X-rays and isotopiC
gamma rays are the chief weap-
onS against deep tumorS, while
beta-particle emitters like

skin cancers.

shotgun" manner that would
never be tolerated today. Ra-
dium solutions were prescribed
as 'tonics" and as specifics for
such complaints as arthritis
and acne vulgaris. Many people
died as a result.
Though this sort of medical
practice would be condemned
as arrant quackery today, II
was sanctioned by the medical
profession until well into the
1930s. Researchers into the
effects of radium poisoning
sometimes find it difficult now
adays to get old-time doctors
to owr up to the kind of pre-
scribing they used to do.
One of the most widely used
forms of radiation therapy in
volving radioisotopes is cobalt
so treatment of deep-seated
cancers. This therapy uses
highly penetrating gamma rays,
eight times as energetic as those
of ordinary radium.
A typical cobalt-60 machine
has a fiat table on which the
patient lies, and a movable
apparatus which can swing the
radiation source around in a
predetermined pattern. Secret
of the treatment lies in concen-
trating a narrow, pencil-like
beam of gamma rays at the
heart of the tumor, giving it
a full and lethal dose, while
moving the beam constantly so
non-cancerous tissues receive
only a partial dose.
Furious Half Ounce

cobalt-60 source in the world

A lead shield big enough tc

of a 3,000-curie cobalt source

This would make the moving
parts of the machine too bis

to get some natural uranium
to use as a shield. This is SC
much more effective than lead

still alive four years later. Good
results have been noted in sub
Sequent cases, where patients
were not so desperately i'll. The
operators Of the big machine
are happy with results so far,
and are confident that it will
bring relief in many cases
where the doctors would other
wise have to concede a lost
cause.
A great drawback to these
highly advanced machines is
their cost. The X-ray machine
at San Francisco was obtained
at a bargain" price of about
a quarter million dollars. The
cobalt-60 apparatus at Chicago,
including all its associated
equipment. cost hundreds of
thousands of dollars. Specially
trained operators are required,
and the cost of running the
machines is usually quite high.
Happily, the use of such 6e-
vices is restricted to a small
number of cases which cannot
be treated in other ways. A few,
Strategically placed in regional
centers, probably would suffice
to handle the national case
load. This seems the most likely
development in high-energy
cancer therapy.
