HUMAN HEALTH STUDIES - EFFECT FROM ENERGY GENERATION - METABOLISM AND
EFFECTS OF INTERNALLY DEPOSITED RADIONCULIDES AND TRACE ELEMENTS
A. F. Stehney, Argonne National Laboratory

Find quantitative relationships between the biological effects of
radionuclides in man and internal radiation doses.
céD

HUMAN HEALTH EFFECTS FROM ENERGY GENERATION - MEDICAL STUDIES OF THE
PEOPLE OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ACCIDENTALLY EXPOSED TO FALLOUT
R. A. Conard, Brookhaven National Laboratory

Follow-up study of Marshallese exposed to fall-out from nuclear weapons
testing.
El

DETERMINATION OF PLUTONIUM IN MAN
G. L. Voelz, M. D., Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory
Actual measurement of tissue depositions of plutonium in workers to verify
the accuracy of estimated body deposition based on bioassay.

E2

EPIDEMIOLOGIC STUDY OF PLUTONIUM WORKERS
G. L. Voelz, M. D., Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory
To establish base-line levels of plutonium in tissues of the general
population due to fall-out and in workers as a result of occupational hazard.

Fl

PUBLIC. HEALTH AND DEMOGRAPHIC STUDIES
J. K. Poggenburg, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
To collect and analyze public health and demographic statistics around
existing and proposed nuclear and non-nuclear facilities and to assemble
the results for use in assessments.

F2

DOSIMETRY

OF HUMAN EXPOSURES

D. J. Jacobs, Oak Ridge National Laboratory
To improve the physical dosimetry of human radiation exposures and the
techniques of estimating radiation exposure risks to man.
