(National Inst. Source: Hiroshima Igaku (Japan) v 29:3. Publication Date: Mar 1976 p 307-310 Document Type: Journal Article Language: of Radiological Coden: - Sciences, Chiba HIRGA Japanese Journal Announcement: EDB7702 Subfile: AIX (non-US Atomindex input). Country of Origin: Japan Abstract: The estimation of exposure dose based on chromosome aberrations was described. The results of estimation of exposure dose based on chromosome aberrations of peripheral lymphocytes on individuals exposed to /sup 192/Ir by accident, Bikini victims, and atomic bomb survivors were divided into subjects who had been observed from immediately after exposure and those who were observed after the lapse of many years, for comparison. In cases soon after exposure, results of very high precision were obtained as far as the low dose range. In cases after the lapse of many years, quantitative estimation to a considerable extent was also possible.; Major Descriptors: *A-BOMB SURVIVORS -- CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATIONS Descriptors: BIOLOGICAL DOSEMETERS; DICENTRIC CHROMOSOMES; IN VITRO; INCUBATION; RADIATION DOSES; RING CHROMOSOMES; TIME DEPENDENCE Broader Terms: CHROMOSOMES; DOSEMETERS; DOSES; MEASURING INSTRUMENTS; MUTATIONS Subject Categories: 560151* -- Radiation Effects on Animals -- Man INIS Subject Categories: C55* -- Personnel Dosimetry & Monitoring 10/5/985 (Item 685 from file: 103) 00201081 AIX-08-283659; EDB-77-038756 Author(s): Kumatori, Title: Clinical observations over 20 years period of Bikini victims (Japan) ) T.

Exposure doses were estimated, and the progress of medical examinations for skin injury, hematological changes, cytogenetic changes, and spermatogenetic disturbance was described. In view of internal exposure, none of the long half-life nuclides was retained in the body. The victims were compared with the victims exposed in Marshall Islands. ; Major Descriptors: *A-BOMB SURVIVORS -- DELAYED RADIATION EFFECTS Descriptors: BIKINI; BLOOD PLATELETS; CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATIONS; EARLY RADIATION EFFECTS; EOSINOPHILS; ERYTHROCYTES; RADIATION DOSES; RADIODERMATITIS; SPERMATOZOA; TIME DEPENDENCE Broader Terms: BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS; BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS; BIOLOGICAL RADIATION EFFECTS; BLOOD; BLOOD CELLS; BODY FLUIDS; DERMATITIS; DISEASES; DOSES; GAMETES; GERM CELLS; INJURIES; ISLANDS; LEUKOCYTES; LOCAL RADIATION EFFECTS; MARSHALL ISLANDS; MUTATIONS; RADIATION EFFECTS 7 RADIATION INJURIES; SKIN DISEASES subject Categories: 560151* -- Radiation Effects on Animals -- Man
