Radiation-induced fetal testicular damage in the monkey (Macaca radiata).
The testes of five monkeys (Macaca radiata) were examined histologically for evidence of damage, following in utero fractionated X-irradiation. Radiation-induced damage was found in the testes of animals beginning at total exposures of 170 r, when compared to controls.
