Description

The following topics were considered: iodine metabolism in human organism and its relations with thyroid functional activity; dosimetry and the problems related to the evaluation of radiation doses to the thyroid and different body organs; results of animal experimentation concerning radiobiology and radiocarcinogenesis; epidemiological studies of the effects of irradiation of the thyroid gland and finally the regulation of radiation protection concerning radioactive iodine (63 references)

Abstract (French)

On a examine successivement le metabolisme de l'iode dans l'organisme, ainsi que ses relations avec l'activite fonctionnelle de la thyroide, la dosimetrie et les problemes poses par l'evaluation des doses recues par la thyroide et les differents points de l'organisme, les resultats des experimentations animales sur le plan radiobiologie et radiocarcinogenese, les etudes epidemiologiques des effets d'une irradiation de la glande thyroide et enfin la reglementation de la radioprotection en ce qui concerne les iodes radioactifs.
