[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.
