Hardback. Condición: New. A volume in the Textbooks of Military Medicine series, edited by Anthony B. Mickelson, covering the medical effects of nuclear detonations and radiological devices and how to treat them. It opens with radiological events and their consequences: blast, thermal and radiation effects, fallout and how its hazards are predicted, radiological exposure and dispersal devices, possible radioactive sources, and the Chernobyl accident. Later chapters deal with acute radiation syndrome in humans, triage and treatment of mass casualties with radiation and combined injuries, internal radionuclide contamination, bacterial infections after radiation injury, and early-phase biological dosimetry. The book also covers behavioral, neurophysiological and psychological effects, late and low-level effects, radiological questions in medical operations, countermeasures, and cytogenetic biodosimetry.
