Toxicity of injected radium-226 in immature dogs
Description
This study was conducted to determine the toxicity of injected 226Ra in immature dogs and to compare the results with those from studies of injected 226Ra in young adult dogs. An historic objective of these studies, initiated at the University of Utah and continued at ITRI, was to compare the results in dogs to the population of dial painters who ingested 226Ra as young adults. Age at the time of exposure is considered to be an important factor in dosimetry and risk of developing radiation-induced disease, particularly bone cancer. In summary, dogs injected with 226Ra when immature had increased occurrences of bone tumors in a dose-related fashion
