Six months after total irradiation of dogs with 400-r of gamma rays, an intensified activity of the thyroid gland not observed in the first months following the irradiation was found. It was attended in a number of cases by dystrophic and necrobiotic changes in the gland. The functional disturbances of the gland remained unchanged 9, 11, and 13 months after irradiation and, apparently, are associated with reduced synthesis of thyroid hormone. (auth)
