Description/Abstract:
THE DISTRIBUTION AND EXCRETION OF PLUTONIUM ADMINISTERED INTRAVENOUSLY TO MAN IS STUDIED. THE DATA FROM TWELVE SUBJECTS HAVE BEEN CORRELATED WITH SIMILAR DATA COLLECTED BY OTHER INVESTIGATORS, MAKING A TOTAL OF 16 CASES CONSIDERED. THE DATA HAVE BEEN SUPPLEMENTED FURTHER WITH OBSERVATIONS MADE ON THREE LOS ALAMOS LABORATORY PERSONNEL WHO ABSORBED MEASURABLE AMOUNTS OF PLUTONIUM IN THE COURSE OF THEIR WORK. THE RESULTS OF THESE STUDIES ARE SUMMARIZED.
