Description

The injection of 90Sr in the dose of 0.05 μCi/g to rats caused mediate tumours in the endocrine system. The hystologic picture and morphometric indicators (the establishment of a relative gland mass, nucleus and cell volume, the width of the adrenal cortex zone, the height of thyroid epithelium) have been studied dynamically for 210 days, a period that is latent for tumour emergence. The content of ascorbic acid in the adrenal glands and their eosinopenic response to ACTH injection were inves-tigated, and the iodine fixing ability of the thyroid gland in relation to radioactive iodine was determined
