A Study of the Immunologic Aspects of Therapy of Radiation Injury in the Soldier

Topics covered (among others) include Summary of the Report, Scope of the Study, Annotated Bibliographic Review of the Treatment of Radiation Injury, Review Discussions, Modified Physiology of the Irradiated Animal, Opportunistic Infections, Fundamental Problems in Transplant Immunology, Suggested Areas for Future Research, References cited in This Report, Appendix, and an Annotated Bibliography. This report on the immunologic aspects of radiation injury and therapy is based on a study that was conducted to explore new approaches to an understanding of the nature of the reactions to cells and body tissues to ionizing radiation, and to exploit this knowledge in the development of better methods to treat radiation injury in the soldier. wraps (some soiling and discoloration to covers).
