 : Hot radioactive particles found in human lungs, 1992


Hot radioactive particles found in human lungs, 1992

Gomel Region, Belarus. Hot radioactive particles found in human lungs at the Belarusian Institute of Radiology. In 1992, the Institute finished examining the residents of 24 local towns and exclusion zone territories with more than 15 Ci of contamination, without finding similar particles in their lungs. Scientists think only Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant disaster cleanup workers and 30 km exclusion zone residents are likely to have such results. Leonid Sverdlov/ITAR-TASS
