ASSESSMENT OF ACCUMULATED DOSE OF GONAD IRRADIATION IN ADULT POPULATION AFFECTED AFTER CHERNOBYL DISASTER

Abstract

The article presents assessment of the dose of gonad irradiation accumulated in adult men and women after Chernobyl Disaster. It was established, that the doses of external irradiation of the gonads were approximately equal to the accumulated dose of external irradiation of body in whole, and the doses of internal irradiation were considerably lower in comparison with the accumulated dose of external irradiation of body in whole. The inclusion of the values of the accumulated doses of gonad irradiation into the data base of the National Register of people affected by radiation after Chernobyl Disaster considerably expands its informativity and makes it possible for scientific workers and physicians to make more substantiated conclusions about health state of population, residing in radioactively polluted territories. In general, the doses of the gonads are considerably lower than those that cause noticeable genetic effects.
