História biográfica
Sir Stanford Cade qualified as a surgeon in 1917 and went on to hold a series of appointments at Westminster Hospital, London, becoming a full surgeon in 1937. In addition, he held posts at Mount Vernon Hospital and the Radium Institute. From an early interest in morbid anatomy and the surgical aspects of the treatment of cancer, Cade developed an interest in the treatment of malignant disease with radium and X rays. He is now best known for this pioneering work on radium, radiotherapy and the treatment of all types of cancer. He produced numerous articles and publications on cancer and surgical subjects, including Radium Treatment of Cancer (1929) and Malignant Disease and its Treatment by Radium, which was published in four volumes between 1948 and 1952. During the Second World War, Cade served in the Royal Air Force. He continued his association with the armed forces in the post-war period, serving as a civilian consultant surgeon to the RAF until 1965, and also as honorary civilian consultant in radiotherapy to the Army. He retired from his post at Westminster Hospital in 1960, but remained consulting surgeon until his death in 1973.
