The following conclusions may bedrawn: 1. Any fissure or crust on the lip production of fibrous nodules (espe-cially when the needles are placedfarther apart, and left in place six-teen hours), which are composed offibrous tissue and result from the ne- croses produced by the radium. Theywill lead the untrained to suspect ma-lignant nodules or redevelopment of thedisease.
