Country of Origin: United States Country of Publication: United States Abstract: The thyroid findings in the Marshallese people accidentally exposed to fallout from the detonation of a nuclear device at Bikini in 1954 are updated. These findings include depression of leukocytes and erythrocytes levels, burns of the skin, and internal adsorption of radionuclides along with the development of thyroid abnormalities and myelogenous leukemia.
