Experimental results showing the functional disturbances in some parts of the central nervous system of rabbits exposed to a single whole-body x radiation are reported. Functional changes of exteroceptive and interoceptive mechanisms and of spinal reflexes, as well as changes in the brain stem and brain cortex activity, were observed. Bioelectrical phenomena in various tissues, spinal and postural reflexes, respiratory functions, and conditioned reflexes were studied. The role played by subcortical centers in the development of the radiation-induced changes in the central nervous system was also considered. It was concluded that, although the brain cortex in higher animals suffers pronounced injury from ionizing radiation, the functional disturbances and disorders occurring in subcortical centers also play an important role in radiation sickness pathogenesis.
