Kano Ikeda

Kano Ikeda (1887–1960), was a Japanese American professor of pathology who wrote several articles relating to his experience of the 1924–1925 Minnesota smallpox epidemic.[1][2][3][4] Ikeda's 1925 report on laboratory findings in haemorrhage smallpox were used by Derrick Tovey to diagnose early cases of smallpox during the Bradford smallpox outbreak of 1962.[5]

Ikeda was a native of Tokyo, Japan, and came to the United States in 1904. In 1953, he was the first person from Japan to become a U.S. citizen in Minnesota.[6] He worked at Miller Hospital in St. Paul and at the University of Minnesota.
