Benjamin, S A

The Collaborative Radiological Health Laboratory was established in 1962 by the Division of Biological Effects, Bureau of Radiological Health, and the Department of Radiology and Radiation Biology, Colorado State University, to assess possible long-term effects in the beagle from low-level whole-body gamma irradiation. The first section of this annual report summarizes the current status of the long-term effects of irradiation during development in the beagle. The second section addresses studies of radiation-induced and spontaneous disease in the beagle. Cardiovascular disease has also been noted to be a significant clinical disease problem in the aging beagle. The third section describes the CRHL data processing system as it existed and the current changes being made. Several aspects of the methods and procedures available for statistical analysis of data are discussed.
