Cole, MD, FACS is perhaps best known as the 1924 co-developer, with Evarts Graham, of the process used in the diagnosis of gall bladder disease, whereby the gall bladder was visualized with x-rays by using contrast media. He later became a leading advocate of cancer control and treatment, after observing in some of his clinical research studies that cancer cells appeared to spread through the blood stream, thus sometimes spreading cancer after surgical procedures. He became known at the American College of Surgeons, where he served as President for the 1955/1956 term, as a particularly beloved professor and mentor of his residents, becoming a leader in the development of the surgeon scientist." - American College of Surgeons
