Samuel S. Shouse M.D.1 and
Stafford L. Warren M.D.1
1 From the Departments of Pathology and Radiology of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, Rochester, N. Y.
1. The individual destructive effects of colloidal silver and heavily filtered radiation are still evident when the two are used together.
2. The combined effects are cumulative in that small doses are more destructive than when either is used alone.
3. The leucocytosis resulting from the injection of the colloidal silver affords no protection against the terminal leucopenia following the radiation.
