Conard, R.A.; Huggins, C.EB.; Cannon, B.; Lowrey, A. Am. Med. Assoc. (United States) v 164. Coden: JAMAA Subfile: TIC Publication Date: 1957 p 1192-1197 Document Type: Journal Article Language: English Journal Announcement: EDB8103 (Technical Information Center). Country of Origin: United States Abstract: This report concerns the medical follow-up survey of 82 Marshallese people two years after exposure to fallout radiation. On Rongelap Island, 64 people and on Ailingnae, 18 people were exposed to the radiation on March 1, 1954, after an experimental detonation of a nuclear device some 100 miles away. Initial and follow up studies on these people six months and one year after exposure have been reported.

Country of Origin: United States Abstract: This paper presents an equation with which the constant daily activity ingestion rate may be calculated from sequentially obtained whole body counting and urine bioassay data. The model was developed to relate whole body counting results to urinary activity excretion 9003982 Subject Categories: data for /sup 137/Cs in the Marshallese population at Bikini Island for whom accurate dietary intake and residence interval information were not available. The technique is applicable to radioactive material whose biological and physical removal mechanisms are linear first order processes described by appropriate rate constants which give the instantaneous fraction of atoms transferred from compartments in the body to urine per unit time, and the instantaneous fraction of atoms
