Twelve years of follow up of cases with old 241Am internal contamination.

Original language description

A group of workers internally contaminated with Am have been followed for about 12 years. In vivo measurement of the workers was performed with two LEGe detectors placed near the head of the measured person. Samples of urine and feces were analyzed by means of radiochemical separation followed by alpha-spectrometry. When the measured data (83 data on skeletal activity, activity in 389 bioassay samples) were compared with International Commission on Radiological Protection's and Leggett's biokinetic models of americium, it was found that in most cases, after more than 15 y since the intake, the excretion rate was lower (or skeletal activity higher) than predicted. On the other hand, the ratio of excreted activity in urine and feces agrees well with model predictions.
