individual and population dose-equivalent assessment based on measured
body burdens, retention functions, and radioactivity uptake patterns.
These data
will be used to modify predictive dose-equivalent commitment models so they nay
more adequately reflect future trends, and
3.
the collection of physiologic, anthropomorphic, diet and living satrern
data to apply accurate parameters to contemporary and predictive dose assessments.
Program activities in the coming fiscal vear will emphasize the following:
1.
in vivo counting and radiochemical analysis of biological samples for
Enewetak Atoll residents,

2.
in vivo counting and radiochemical analysis of biological samples for
former Bikini Island residents,
3.- in vivo counting and radiochemical analysis of biological samples for
Marshallesecomparison groups who have not subsisted from food grown on Utirik,
Rongelap, Bikini or Enewetak Atolls, and
4.

from Enewetak.
