title: [ Multigeneration carcinogenesis in the evaluation and prognosis of delayed radiation effects].
abstract: Radiation multigeneration carcinogenesis' mechanisms are associated with inheritance of non-specific genome lesions. Evidence indicates that the effect is significantly enhanced by some chemical carcinogens action on the offspring of irradiated parents. Hereditary character of the phenomenon is a prerequisite to accumulation of these genetic determinants in the population. The risk of radiation multigeneration carcinogenesis for man could be as much as 0.4 x 10(-2) Sv-1 over one generation.
