Society of Nuclear Medicine
Elects Officers in Portland
PORTLAND Uft Dr. Milto T.
Harris of SpokSne, Wash., is e
new president of the Society of
Nuclear Medicine.
Others ekcted at the close of
th organization's second annual
meeting here Sunday: Norman J.
Holter, Helena, Mont., president
elect; Dr. Robert G. Moffat, Van
couver, B. "C., secretary; and Dr.
Robert F. Labbe, Portland, treas
urer, New trustees include: Dr. Rich
ard J. Walton, 'Winnipeg; Dr.
Tyra T. Hutchens, Portland;
Joseph P. Nelson, Spokane; and
William H. Hanna, Bremerton,
Was.
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.
