Abstract
THE Irish Radium Committee has issued its report for the year 1934 (Sci. Proc. Roy. Dublin Soc., 21, No. 25, 1935. Separate issue). There was a small increase in the number of batches of radon tubes issued; but a decrease in the total quantity of radon, owing to the continued tendency towards the use of smaller doses, and a considerable increase in the number of cases treated. Little can bo gathered from the report of the success or otherwise of the treatment, and an unsatisfactory feature is the fact that some 25 per cent of the patients treated could not be traced after their discharge from hospital.
