White rats irradiated with an x-ray dose of 685 r were cut on the soft tissues of the shank 1 to 11/2 hr after irradiation. Necrosis on the walls of the wound was observable at the end ot the first day. Edema of the wound was distinctly noticeable on the 3rd day. Resorption of the necrotic muscle fibers began to take place, but new dystrophy and necrotic changes in the muscle fibers as well as new bleeding sites were noted on ths walls of the wound. A leukocyte barrier between the healthy and necrotic tissues was hardly noticeable in the irradiated animals. Extensive necrotic changes of the muscle tissues in the vicinity oi the wound were noted in numerous irradiated animals who died on the 9th to l0th day after irradiation. Healthy connecting tissue was noticed in the wound of the animals who recovered from the radiation sickness. (TTT)
