The patienthas had several recurrences, each of which quickly heals after radium has been applied. EODENT ULCER 311 before repeating the exposure. This allows the operator to determine thedegree of reaction the tissues possess. If, however, the growth threatensto spread more rapidly, a further exposure must be given at once, and thisone should be filtered. It is well to bear in mind that it is possible tostimulate a growth
