Abstract: Reviewed are radiobiological data on the emergence of tissue reactions that may determine the course and outcome of human chronic irradiation. The main mechanisms of the reaction of hemopoietic, immune, reproductive, endocrine, respiratory systems and skin to long-term and fractionated exposure to ionizing radiation are considered. The problem of developing a new approach to threshold dose estimation for chronic exposure effects is discussed.

Abstract: 20 years after the accident of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, it becomes all the more clear, by facts, that sharp increase in the incidence of thyroid cancer, especially malignant tumors, has become the basic health effects of radiation. Most tragically, the above mentioned fact is observed among persons who, at the time of the accident, were children or teenagers and were exposed to radioactive iodine (Vtyurin BM et al., 2003). …
Aim of research: to develop tactics of examination of children and adolescents with thyroid tumors, based on the analysis of clinical and diagnostic data, including usage of immune-genetic studies. Optimization of method to treat these diseases, considering the immune-genetic characteristics of the child.

Abstract: Currently, thyroid cancer in children due to the unfavorable ecological situation, the consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the Tomsk region, the tests at the Semipalatinsk test site, has grown considerably in number. O.K. Khmelnitsky et al. (2000) states on the etiology of thyroid disease: “Not even one discipline of endocrine pathology is related to the environment as closely as to thyroid disease, because the structure and function of the thyroid gland is closely associated with the receipt of iodine and other trace elements from putside. In this regard, thyroid disease can be rightfully considered as a marker of ecological trouble. ” In the group of children and adolescents, thyroid cancer is the most common tumor of the endocrine system. This disease, which occurs much less frequently than in adults, amounts, however, up to 8-15% of malignant solid tumors of the head and neck in children. …
The purpose of the study : To study the structure and pathomorphological features of thyroid cancer in children in Kuzbass and, on this basis, to develop the complex of measures of organization of cancer monitoring, and to improve the results of the differential diagnosis of benign thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer in children.
