Letter from a Union Carbide physician to Dr. Murphy commenting on a letter to Dr. Reuben Cherniak from Drs. Franzblau and Lilis. That letter criticized the American Thoracic Society (ATS) statement on the diagnosis of nonmalignant diseases related to asbestos. The writer rebutted their points on pleural plaques, exposure history, radiographic reading and the omission of pleural abnormalities, and stated that the views were personal and not Union Carbide's.
