DELAYED EFFECTS OF TOTAL IRRADIATION IN SINGLE OR MULTIPLE DOSES AND OF IRRADIATION OF THE HEPATIC REGION ON THE NEUTRAL FATS OF THE LIVER OF THE GUINEA PIG (in French)

Journal Article · · Compt. rend.
OSTI ID:4281213
Male adult guinea pigs were irradiated under different conditions to determine the effects on the liver fats. The guinea pigs were exposed to a single whole-body dose of 800 r, a whole-body dose of 100 r per week for 8 to 9 weeks, and a 1100 r dose localized in the hepatic region. In all cases, a delayed, diffuse, and moderate steatosis appears 15 weeks after the irradiation. It appears to correspond to a direct action of x radiation on the liver. (J.S.R.)
