Preliminary results are summarized from a study on the carcinogenic effects of beta radiation un skin. Emphasis was placed on the development of latent tumors following low-level exposure. The skin of mice was locally irradiated wiih 800 rep beta from plaques of thallium-204. This dose did not induce skin tumors. These mice were treated with croton oil, a tumor-producing agent, and tumors were induced. Control animals treated with the same amounts of radiation or croton oil did not develop tumors. Quantitative dose response phenomena were studied. Data are included from studies on thermal burns with and withnui croton oil treatment, and the response of beta-irradiated skin to various dosages of carcinogenic hydrocarbons. (C.H.)
