The Society was told by a Se attle scientist how tritium, an ele ment essential to the hydrogen bomb, has been used as a "trac er" to help doctors diagonise certain diseases of the lung.' Daniel Parrish, research asso ciate at the Veterans Administra tion Hospital in Seattle, described the process in a technical paper. He said disease may affect the size of the lungs' air spaces and it is important for doctors to know the normal capacity of lungs. , The process was developed at the Seattle hospital and tried on 16 volunteers. The subject breathes air from a supply bag to which a tony amount of radio active tritium has been added, exhaling through recording de vices. When he is exhaling and inhal ing an equal amount of tritium, the supply is switched so he breathes in pure air, exhaling into a collection bag. By comput ing the concentration of tritium in the bag the- volume of air in the lungs can be determined. The tritium is not absorbed by the system, Parrish said tritium, or triple weight hydrogen, is the rarest element found in nature. No irnrc than four to six ounces r.re be lieved to be present in the atmos phere at any one time. Register-Guard, 'Eugene, Ore.
