[A possibility to predict the severity of individual damage following the exposure to supralethal radiation dosage. Prediction by early radiation response ].
The experiments on dogs and monkeys have shown that the severity of radiation sickness following the exposure to supralethal radiation doses can be predicted by early response of an individual. For such prediction, the most informative criteria include general severity of clinical manifestations during primary radiation response and evaluated within a few post-damage hours, the degree of tension in cardiac rhythm control, the cortisol level, the endocrine status index.
