Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (LBL) SERIES TITLE Statistical Summaries INCLUSIVE DATES 1937 1989 ARRANGEMENT Varies VOLUME 1.2 cubic feet DESCRIPTION These files consist of statistical summaries of patients/subjects treated at the Donner Pavilion and Donner Clinic and in the several programs in Research Medicine since 1975. The records are primarily typescript pages that are maintained in three-ring binders and provide chronological statistical summaries of the treatment of patients/subjects at LBL by nuclear and radiological therapies. The format of the summary reports in each binder changes over time. These records were created and maintained for both their statistical summary function as well as a finding aid to be used in conjunction with the various card indexes for keeping track of biomedical charts for patients and subjects treated in the various Research Medicine Programs. Included are listings of all Donner patients/subjects; listings of new patients and deaths; survival lists of patients/subjects treated with alpha-particle irradiation organized by diagnosis, including but not limited to acromegaly, Nelson's Syndrome, Diabetic Retinopathy, Breast Cancer and prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma; and lists of potential patients. A finding aid is available. RESTRICTIONS This series contains privacy material.
