Half-time for clearance of isotopes of caesium in man

  • 1. Medical Research Council, Chilton (UK). Radiobiology Unit

Description

A relationship to determine the biological half-life of caesium isotopes in man was proposed in 1972. This relationship is reviewed in the light of subsequent data in clearance rates of caesium. Values for use in planning radiological protection of the public are suggested. 11 refs.; 3 figs.; 1 table
