What A Difference The Summer Makes
Texas Health Department
Has Protective Agency
Last month an Austin State
Hospital physician called the State
Health Department to report that
a radium needle, being used to treat
a patient with skin cancer, had
been dislodged or lost.
Did the Department have radia
tion detection equipment with
which the needle might be located ?
The Department did, and the needle
was subsequently found in a gau^e
bandage.
This incident, one of many that
take place every month, illustrates
the manner in which the Depart
ment’s Division of Occupational
Health, working in cooperation
with private physicians and other
agencies, is quietly going about the
task of protecting citizens from
the dangers of excessive radiation
exposures.
A great deal has been said in
recent, months about the imminent
peril the entire nation is facing
from excessive radiation. Much of
that information has been true in
general, but some of it has been
misconstrued to the point where
people have cancelled much-needed

because of unjustified fear of
radiation exposure.
One of the state’s leading radio
logists, writing in the Texas Medi
cal Association Journal, has sum
med up the situation by saying that
curtailment of radiologic examina
tions would cause a failure in diag
nosis that would result in many
times the number of deaths than
would theoretically occur from
radiation accumulation in the
population 20 generations from
now.
