title: An experimental study on impact of whole body gamma irradiation on liver function and kidney function.
abstract: Five groups of rabbits were used to investigate the effect of increasing doses of radiation on liver and kidney function. One group acted as a control group. The other 4 groups were exposed to increasing doses of whole body gamma radiation. 1-5Gy. The kidney and liver function tests were affected one week after exposure, except bilirubin level that was decreased immediately after exposure within 24 hours.
