New Device for Medical Treatment

TEL AVIV — Weizmann Institute officials announced Tues-
day the development of a magnetic device the size of a pencil
point and encased in plastic which may yield significant advances
in therapy diagnosis and surgery in presently difficult areas of
illness.
The device, called a "Pod", can be introduced into the blood-
stream of bodily organs and guided to an area of treatment with
magnetic field manipulation. Officials said it held possibilities
in measurement of bloodflow, simple but valuable operations and
the removal of thrombosis blockades by circulation in the blood-
stream to dissolve clots.
The device, which has been tested on animals, is scheduled
to be tested on human beings within the next year. It was de-
veloped by Prof. Ephraim Frei of the Institute in cooperation
with Institute Engineer Saul Libinson. It is now being tested
by Prof. Ahszenazi.

The trial and conviction were
disclosed by an official of the

Soviet Foreign Office who con-
tacted a representative of the
Israeli Embassy in Moscow and

case.
The statement said that Cogan
was tried on Sept. 24 "in the
presence of lawyers" and that
the Israeli "confirmed fully all
the charges against him." These
were that while he was on active
duty with the Soviet army he
"betrayed his homelond." The
specific charge was that he had
been on duty in Germny in 1945
and "went over" to the British
occupation zone, from there to
the American zone and from
there to Palestine in 1947.
