The ability of the radioprotector gammaphos to modify the development of late vascular changes in rat brain after local irradiation with 25 Gy was investigated by means of angiographic method. A protective effect was seen against late vascular abnormalities. It is suggested that a causative relationship exists between vascular abnormalities, brain necrosis, and radiation mortality after irradiation with moderate doses.
