Abstract: The goal of the study was to recognize the interhemispheric asymmetry effects in appearance of psychopathology in Chernobyl accident’s survivors. Psychometric, neurophysiological, neuropsychological methods were used for assessment of the persons who had been diagnosed with Acute Radiation Sickness (ARS), clean-up workers (liquidators), prenatally exposed children, and relevant comparison and control groups. Also the ultrasonic dopplerography and magnetic resonance imaging with their qualitative and quantitative estimations were done. It was revealed that the damage of the left, dominant, hemisphere is characteristic for the ARS-patients, liquidators exposed to more than 0.3 Sv and prenatally exposed children. The structural and functional features of radiation brain damage consists of the reduction of the systolic circulation in the left internal carotid artery, pathology of cerebral cortex, subcortical structures, neuronal pathways and cortical-limbic system of the dominant hemisphere. This cerebral pathology is the cause of negative psychopathological symptoms, cognitive disorders, depression, and personality changes that are typical in remote period of Chernobyl accident for the liquidators exposed to more than 0.3 Sv and prenatally exposed children.

Keywords: prenatal acute exposure, mental disorder
Abstract: On the basis of clinical and psychophysical studies of dosimetric accompaniment of representative sample of children, who have suffered acute fetal irradiation (born between 26 April 1986 and 26 February 1987 from pregnant women evacuated from Pripyat to Kiev after the Chernobyl disaster), with a parallel population control (Kiev 50 children), we found radio-cerebral effects. Features comprehensive clinical and psychophysiological characteristic, developed diagnostic criteria of mental disorders, as a result of prenatal exposure and established risk factors affecting intellectual development, clinical and physiological state of these children etc.
