[Morphological changes in the lungs after single whole-body irradiation in rabbits].
Morphological changes in rabbit lungs were studied after whole-body nonuniform irradiation (24 Gy) the head and the abdomen being shielded. Acute pneumonitis was shown to develop between the 17th and the 24th day after irradiation. No pulmonary fibrosis was registered 60 days following irradiation. Embolised megakaryocytes were found in the lung capillaries between the 8th and the 24th day after irradiation.
