Although aplastic anemia has not increased as a late effect of the atomic bomb radiation exposure, many atypical leukemia or other myeloproliferative diseases who had been diagnosed as aplastic anemia or its related diseases have been experienced among atomic bomb survivors. Chromosome study was ...
Researchers probing the effects of radiation exposure among Japanese atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki have discovered that even moderate doses of radiation are associated with an increased risk of benign and malignant nervous system tumors (J Natl Cancer Inst. 2002;94:1555-1563). ...

Since exposure to radiation greatly affects the immune system of the host, a study of cancer among A-bomb survivors is warranted to determine how individual susceptibility to cancer is affected by radiation exposure. We investigated radiation effects on cancer susceptibility based on stomach cancer ...
