		Evans' studies went well beyond measuring radium in the body: he pioneered investigations into its metabolism, its hazards, and methods for mitigating these hazards.

	TIME.com: Radium Hangovers -- Nov. 10, 1958 -- Page 1
		Robley Dunglison Evans, 51, had him breathe into a glass flask, to test for radon gas in his breath, and into a mask hooked up to another flask to test for another gas, thoron, that has a half life of only 54 seconds.
		One possibility is that Dr. Evans was overconservative back in 1941 when he set the safe "maximum permissible body burden" of radium at one ten-millionth of a gram.
		But if Dr. Evans was overconservative then, it was a good fault: after the haphazard misuse of radium only a decade earlier, a strong corrective was needed.
