The Modern Trend of Cancer Treatment

Abstract

OF the special reports issued by the Medical Research Council, so far as we are aware, only one has assumed an annual character. We refer to the reports on the “Medical Uses of Radium”, which have been issued yearly from 1922. Taken together, they form a valuable, interesting and concise summary of the progress of radium therapy in Great Britain, and show the important part which has been taken by the Council in its development. Although primarily intended for workers in a particular branch of therapy, they may, nevertheless, be consulted with profit and interest by all who are interested in the treatment of malignant disease.
