  • Title: The Sheffield nose--an occupational disease?
    Author: Kayarkar R, Parker AJ, Goepel JR.
    Journal: Rhinology; 2003 Jun; 41(2):125-6. PubMed ID: 12868381.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of silver tattooing of the nasal mucosa in a silver polisher. The concern in such cases is mainly due to the suspicion of melanoma. The diagnosis was confirmed by using the Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) method, which revealed the presence of two types of silver isotopes, at 107 and 109 m/z.
