  • Title: [Cardiac function and reactivity in the late period following irradiation with high-energy protons].
    Author: Efimov VI.
    Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1990 Feb; 35(2):33-5. PubMed ID: 2156123.
    Abstract:
    Electrocardiography was used to analyze the results of 4-year investigations of the cardiac activity and reactivity (adrenalin test) in 32 dogs irradiated with high-energy protons (approximately 240 MeV) at absolutely lethal doses of 4 and 5 Gy. The author's and literature data have shown the similarity of cardiac functional features and reactivity in a long-term period in dogs with those in animals after radiation disease caused by exposure to some other types of ionizing radiations.
