Biological effects are produced whenever radiations are absorbed by the living organism. The reaction that occurs as a result of the irradiation may be insignificant in that no recognizable injury is apparent during the life of the recipient; the effects may be insidious and appear only after a lapse of many generations; or the results may be ruinous with death resulting within a short time. The biological response to radiations might thus represent a number of manifestations all of which might be expected to have a common etiology.
