Malignant neoformations of the hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues in the personnel of the 1st plant of atomic industry.

Rates of mortality from hemopoietic and lymphoid malignancies for 1948-1987 were studied in male staff of industrial atomic reactors and radiochemical industry for irradiated uranium processing versus dose of external gamma radiation. An increase in mortality due to radiation–induced acute leukemia was registered in the radiochemical industry staff 5-10 years following the start of exposure and was associated with high dose of external radiation. The risk of acute leukemia for this period was 1.65 x 10(-3) x Sv-1 cases during 5 years whereas within the other 30-35 years of follow-up the risk of death from hemolymphoblastosis or acute leukemia was less than 1 x 10(-3) x Sv(-1) during 5 years.
