Abstract
A previously described method of estimating Ba and Sr in bone ash by neutron-activation has been modified to include non-skeletal tissues. Soft tissues collected from 31 cadavers have been examined. No marked accumulation of Ba and Sr was apparent; lung and aorta were found to have the highest concentrations.Keywords
