The effects of x-ray injuries on blood coagulation by general hemostatic tests on 14 x-ray technicians were investigatsd. Six out of 14 men had experience of more than 10 years, 4 had 5-10 years' experience, and the remaining 4 had less than 5 years. The values of an equal number (14) of normal people were taken as controls. Generally, there was found no statistically significant difference between the technicians and the controls. However, in the technicians there was found a tendency of the serum prothrombin to increase, whole blood clotting time to be shortened, and for the number of platelets to decrease together with a decline in clot retraction. On the other hand, the heparin-like substance tended to increase, especially in x-ray technicians of long-standing experience. (Abstr. Japan Med., 1: No. 9, 1961)
