title: [Results of peripheral blood tests in thorium production workers].
abstract: The authors studied peripheral blood parameters in thorium production workers. Separate analysis covered a group of subjects with chronic radiation sickness. Reliably more pronounced in the chronic radiation sickness group, disposition to thrombocytopenia and leucopenia could be caused by occupational factors. Anemia associated with disposition to erythrocytopenia and increased ESR could be caused by malnutrition.
