Research on radiological protection published by scientists at National Research Center for Environment and Health

New research, 'Influence of human biokinetics of strontium on internal ingestion dose of 90Sr and absorbed dose of 89Sr to organs and metastases,' is the subject of a report. According to a study from Neuherberg, Germany, "The objective of the present work is to apply the plasma clearance parameters to strontium, previously determined in our laboratory, to improve the biokinetic and dosimetric models of strontium-90 ((90)Sr) used in radiological protection; and also to apply this data for the estimation of the radiation doses from strontium-89 ((89)Sr) after administration to patients for the treatment of the painful bone metastases. Plasma clearance and urinary excretion of stable...
