At the Medical College, research is continuing in the field of whole I body radiation. This work is a cooperation venture of surgeons and radiologists who are attempting to find a solution to a problem! which plagues the whole field of' cancer. The problem is that whenever an agent can be found which destroys cancer tissue, it also destroys normal growing tissue. The American Cancer Society’s grant enables scientists at the Medical College to explore the effect of radiation combined with various drugs on the body’s immune defenses to see if a greater resistance to cancer can be produced by cell transplantation.

These and other research projects at the Medical College and the University of Virginia are supported by the American Cancer Society through funds from its combined educational and fundraising Crusade each April.
