[Ultrasonic scanning of the thyroid in the children of Bryansk Province in 1989].
Ultrasound scanning has shown that the rate of pathological thyroid changes in schoolchildren of the endemic zone is a 2.5-fold high as that in Moscow schoolchildren. Children affected at the Chernobyl accident demonstrated a significant increase in the thyroid size, the frequency of hypoplasia and thypoiditides as compared to indices in children from the endemic area without radioactive contamination.
