Immunological and Epidemiological Investigations in Regions Contaminated by Radionuclides after the Chernobyl Accident
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The views of researchers and physicians on the aftereffects of the Chernobyl accident are contradictory. Numerous publications indicate disorders in immunity and health in the residents of the radiocontaminated areas. However, a number of leading specialists in radiation medicine and radiobiology point to the fact that at low level ionizing radiation to which is mostly exposed population in the contaminated regions the disorders of health are usually lacking.
