title: [Autopsy-based data on radionuclide concentrations in selected endocrine organs (Vitebsk region, Belarus)].
abstract: Gamma spectometry was used to compare 137Cs levels in certain endocrine organs of victims of general and oncological diseases of different localizations. The radionuclide distribution in the thyroid, adrenals and pancreas was studied. Elevated concentrations were found in the endocrine system of cancer patients.
