[A pathologist's radiological culture].
The authors analyze 8 papers on human radiation pathology, published in the journal "Arkhiv Patologii", which assess the quality of radiological information given in them. It turns out that pathologists have accumulated important facts on some types of pathology (thyroid cancer, diseases of different organs), but their dependence on the action of radiation requires more valid evidence. The absence of radiation doses in most papers reduces the validity of the conclusions of the articles. All possible internal and external causes of the found changes, and not just ionizing radiations should be considered while interpreting results.
