This introduction gives a brief review of the effects on pregnancy outcome that might follow radioactive contamination of the environment. These include miscarriages, congenital anomalies, damage to the central nervous system expressed through reduced intelligence and a risk of tumours late in life. Knowledge is fragmentary and field studies are difficult, which lends weight to the attempts at studying the effects of the Chernobyl accident in Europe which are the subject of the present symposium.
本引言简要回顾了环境放射性污染可能对妊娠结局产生的影响。这些影响包括流产、先天性异常、因智力下降而表现出的中枢神经系统损伤以及晚年患肿瘤的风险。相关知识尚不完整，实地研究也很困难，这使得对切尔诺贝利事故在欧洲造成的影响进行研究的尝试更具重要性，而本次研讨会的主题正是这些研究。
