title: [Possibility of prediction of synergistic effects at a whole organism level].
abstract: The possibility of applying the mathematical model of synergism, developed earlier for description of combined effects in cell system, to the description of synergism on organisms level was developed. The model describes data on combined action of ionising radiation and other harmful environmental agents on survival and cancerogenesis in laboratory animals and human beings.
