Description

Irradiation of Macaca fascicularis with electrons (24 MeV, 46 fnd 104 Gy) and gamma-quanta (60Co, 77 and 138 Gy) caused early transient incapacitation (ETI) and severe symptoms of neurological disturbances. Two types of the ETI clinical patterns were distinguished: a dyskinetic type marked by ataxia; and a severer, comatose type manifested by disappearance of voluntary movements, areactivity, and temporary loss of reflexes
