They do this by Injecting the patient with rndlonctlve potassium, which concentrates In cancer and, ns a rule, goe. In very small quan tity o benign tumors. While the scientists emphasize Hint tho method Is not ft sure test lor breast cancers they Indicate that their figures lenve no doubt Nit that patients now may have a good Idea beforo an operation as to whether iho lump Is Innocent or veidlct calls lor extensive surgery, whether It Is cancer. The latter Including removal of Uie breast. The test was made on 100 wom en with benign and malignant In east tumors. None of the benign tumors look up auspicious quanti ties of the rnaioacllve potassium.
