The investigations performed disclosed that the most pronounced changes in the development of bones in the postnatal period in the offspring of rabbits, subjected to intraiterine irradiation with a single total dose of 300 r, could be noted on the 13th day of pregnancy, rather than on the 20th day following irradiation. These data are similar in roentgenological and in histological investigations. Changes noted roentgenologically show retadation in the growth of bones lengthwise and delay in the appearance of ossification nuclei in the long bones of the tremities. Histological changes in the same bones of the offspring of rabbits consist oi proliferation of bone marrow elements, thickening and swelling of intercerebral septa, reduced blocd supply, development or connective tissue, and thinning of intercerebral septa.
