Editorial

This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

All who are concerned in the treatment of cancer must be interested in any evidence that is brought forward of a constitutional effect produced by the disease, particularly if it is of such a nature that it will lead to a laboratory test that will help in the diagnosis or guide treatment. Many such claims have been made and we publish today an article in which a modification of the Bendien test is described and in which a claim is made that, by this means, useful information can be obtained as to whether metastases are present or not.
