Description

In the first chapter, historical development of In-vivo Neutron Activation Analysis (I.V.N.A.A.) at the Service Hospitalier Frederic Joliot is presented. Then after having reviewed the preliminary animal experiments, the author explains the choice of the irradiation facilities used for human partial I.V.N.A.A. The clinical applications of this technique in the field of thyroid and bone metabolisms are described. The clinical results obtained in patients suffering from various demineralizing bone diseases (osteoporosis, renal osteodystrophy) are given in detail. (author)
