Abstract
For a better understanding of the pathogenesis of malignant liver tumors related to Thorotrast in man [1], an experimental study was undertaken, with the aim of obtaining thorium dioxide-induced tumors in rat liver. Preliminary results have been reported [2,3].
Work supported in part by contract 343/ RB with the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna.
