Abstract: One of the most important problems, being stated before the
medicine by the accident, which took place in Chernobyl in 1986- the
problem of the so-called ionizing radiation low dose effect on a man’s
organism, is considered because a lot of people were subjected to low
dose action. The concept of low doses of radiaion action and
specificity of its immediate action in comparison with high dose action
is considered. One of the most important poit while studying low dose
action is the necessity to develop a system including all irradiated
people and dosimetry, and espicially to study frequencies and periods
of tumor appearance in different irradiated tissues. The results
obtained when examining people who survived the atomic explosion in
Japan and on the Marshall islands are analyzed. They testify to the
fact that radiation affets more tissues than the clinical picture about
the acute radiation sickness tells, and that tumors developing in them
many years after radiation action tell about radiosensitivity in some
tissues.
