The microdistribution of241Am in selected bones of seven beagle dogs was analysed using a computer controlled microscope photometer. Four of the animals receiving between 102·5 and 165 kBq/kg were killed between 7 and 20 days after injection, and three animals receiving 32·9–34·0 kBq/kg were killed between 1300 and 1569 days. Using the photometric scanning technique, the concentrations of241Am in several anatomical regions, as well as the specific surface activities and their variations, dose rates, accumulated radiation doses, burial depths and morphometric parameters, were derived. Dose rates to the 0–10 μm marrow band adjacent to surfaces were found to be between 8·6 and 15·7 times higher than the average skeletal dose. Accumulated radiation doses from initial deposits to lining cells were estimated to be between 87 and 252 Gy. The average burial depth in the animals killed at later times was around 8 μm. Morphometric parameters showed that radiation damage occurred in these animals, resulting in abnormal trabecular architecture. A positive correlation between specific surface activity and local turnover rates was established.
