It was found that the hematocrit value (the percentual volume of the red blood cells) before whole--body x irraaiation can be used to predict probable mortalitly among rabbits irradiated with 800 r (LD/sub 50/). The death rate up to the 30th day among rabbits with high hematocrit values was significantly lower than among animals with lowvalues. This prognostic significance of the hematocrit value is determined by absolute variations in the plasma volume. The relationship between the plasma volume and leukocyte values before and after irradiation indicates the possibility of influencing radiosensitive hematopoietic tissue by water shifts in the organism.
