Comparisons of the Skeletal Locations of Putative Plutonium-Induced Osteosarcomas in Humans with those in Beagle Dogs and with Naturally Occurring Tumors in both Species

Osteosarcomas occur from exposures to bone-seeking, alpha -particle-emitting isotopes, particularly plutonium. The skeletal distribution of putative 239Pu-induced osteosarcomas reported in Mayak Metallurgical and Radiochemical Plutonium Plant workers is compared with those observed in canine studies...
