[Cytogenetic changes in the bone marrow cells of long-term irradiated rats].

The occurrence and characteristics of the chromosome structural changes in femur bone marrow cells under continuous irradiation with the exposure rate of 50 R/day within 90 days was followed. The 25% increase in the chromosome aberration frequency was observed within 7 days of the irradiation, and then the aberration rate was constant up to the end of the irradiation (90 days).
