TL;DR: The results of the studies conducted by the Berkeley and Chicago groups are correlated with the present ones providing a collection of data from sixteen cases as mentioned in this paper, including the twelve tracer cases mentioned above.
Abstract: This report is the final presentation of the results of twelve plutonium tracer cases studied as a joint project of the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory of the University of California and the Atomic Energy Project of the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. The results of the studies conducted by the Berkeley and Chicago groups are correlated with the present ones providing a collection of data from sixteen cases. In addition to the twelve tracer cases mentioned above, the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory has had approximately six years experience with exposure problems associated with the processing of large amounts of plutonium. Wherever applicable, the Laboratory's experiences with the exposure of personnel are used to enlarge and supplement the data collected from the plutonium tracer studies presented in this report. 21 refs., 2 figs., 10 tabs.
