RADIUM IN BONE AND SOFT TISSUES OF MAN
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4127491
Analyses of Ra/sup 226/ in human autopsy samples of soft tissues and bone from 11 normal subjects yield average values for bone of 3.4 x 10/sup -15/ g Ra/sup 226/ per gram wet tissue and for soft tissues from 0.05 to 0.1 x 10/sup - 15/ g Ra/sup 226/ per gram wet tissue. A rough approximation suggests that at least 78% of the naturally acquired body radium is in the bone. (auth)
