A dose of x-rays governed by the following factors induces a stimulation of lymphoid tissue in mice: spark-gap (7/8) inch, milliamperage 25, distance 8 inches, time of exposure 10 minutes. Within 4 days after this dose there appeared an abnormally large number of mitotic figures in the lymphoid tissue of spleen and lymph glands, indicating an acceleration of the proliferative activity of the tissue.

STUDIES ON THE CHANGES PRODUCED BY ROENTGEN RAYS IN INFLAMED CONNECTIVE TISSUE

I have shown that the fibroblasts do not round up in inflammation and do not produce ameboid cells, but remain unchanged in morphology and, through mitotic division, give rise to the new connective tissue in the field of inflammation.

ROENTGEN-RAY TREATMENT OF TUBERCULOUS CERVICAL LYMPH GLANDS: A STUDY OF ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-ONE PATIENTS TREATED BY SMALL DOSES OF FILTERED ROENTGEN RAY, WITH FOLLOW-UP RESULTS

Six cases of enlarged tubercular glands have been under roentgen-ray treatment in the Electrical Department of the Royal Infirmary, Edinburgh, and the duration of the disease has varied from thirteen years to three months.

Low dose ionizing radiation and the immune response: what is the role of non-targeted effects?

There is limited evidence for LDIR induced immune effects by way of a non-targeted mechanism in biological tissue, and models involving inter organism transmission of NTE are a promising route to overcome these issues.

The theoretical basis for biological stimulation of the body against cancer by a lymphatic extract.

The effects of irradiation on the blood and blood forming tissues.

A review of the effects of external whole body and local irradiation in man and experimental animals is given and all investigators are in agreement that blood formation occurs embryologically in an identical manner in all mammals.
