CHEMOSURGERY: A MICROSCOPICALLY CONTROLLED METHOD OF CANCER EXCISION
Abstract
Foreword to Article by Dr. Mohs This paper presents a method for the treatment of carcinoma which is localized to an accessible region of the body. It does not give the answer as to the cause of cancer, nor does it eliminate surgical intervention or radium or roentgen therapy in the treatment of the disease. The method is the result of eight years of work in the laboratory and four years of clinical experience, during which time well over 600 cases have been observed and the results of treatment carefully analyzed. The escharotic agent may be one of several, and the base may be one of many. Over two hundred different bases were studied, and many were suitable. The combination used may be varied, with equally good results. In the last analysis it is the method of control rather than the chemical agent itself that promises an advantage. The advantage

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
