title: [Effects of ionizing radiations on the ultrastructure of the thymus gland].
abstract: Different doses of gamma rays induce ultrastructural alterations in limphoid and epithelial cells of the chick thymus which exhibit a different temporal evolution after the treatment. The main changes which occur in lymphoid cells treated with 50 rads disappear 48 hours after the irradiation, while with 100 rads the radiation damage is still evident in epithelial cells.
