Abstract
Irradiation of rats and mice resulted in acute necrosis of scattered oligodendroglia cells, subependymal cells when present in younger adult animals, retinal rod cells, and occasional neurons in the pyramidal lobe and olfactory brain. Subependymal cells were radiosensitive (200 r) but the other cells were not destroyed below 1200 r.Keywords
