It is known that the immune system is extremly sensitive to ionizing radiation. This report described results of investigations pertaining to experimental and clinical data on the character and dynamics of changes in the immune system as under external radiation influence (x-rays, gamma-irradiation, neutrons) as in the result of radionuclides entering an organism. The influence of ionizing radiation on man was studied by data from nuclear accidents such as from people exposed from the Chernobyl accident.
