Title: THE INDUCTION OF TUMORS IN THE RAT BY ASTATINE-211

Journal Article · · Radiation Research
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2307/3570801· OSTI ID:4299740

Exposure of rats to sublethal amounts of At/sup 211/ results in the early appearance of large numbers of mammary tumors, many of them malignant, and in the production of an altered functional state simulating menopause. It is evident that the tumor induction is not yet tested for its association with radiation exposure separately from the endocrine disturbance. (auth)
