Dr. R. Kobayashi ~ 2
I regret that I am unable to give you the results of analysis
of urine from the 21 other patients. Knowing that those data would be
highly important to your committee in its evaluations of the medical
status of these patients, we have offered to undertake radiochemical
urine analysis of all 23 paticnts. The urine from only two patients
has been delivered to us in time to permit shipment to the States and
analysis by this date. More recently, samples from five additional
patients from the Tokyo University Hospital were delivered to us, but we
have not as yet received samples from the 16 patients now hospitalized
at the Daiichi Hospital.
Respectfully yours,
