Preliminary antituberculosis vaccination of tuberculosisinfected rabbits subjected to protracted x irradiation (10 r daily) yields a positive effect only during the first stages of irradiation. Disturbance of specific antituberculous immunity occurs in the process of development of chronic radiation sickness. At this period the tuberculous process acquires a marked exudative-necrotic character. (auth)
