ICh. reference lists spleen rather than whole body as the critical

Assuming an intake on a per day basis we have:

Thus, even for the spleen, the dietary value of 59,500 pci/day in

Table VI' is only about 1/5 of the MPC.

At eqrt librium the initial body burden would be:

By = 2,290 pCi/day x 1.44 x 100 days x 1

Initial dose rate would be:
