King, Donna C.: Testing for cesium and barium in patients with
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Neurotoxicology Vol. 29, Issue 4, (July, 2008) p. 751.
'This ALS patient had several known exposures to cesium and barium
throughout her lifetime. In utero, she lived downwind from the
first atomic bomb test in 1945. As a child, she lived on military
bases where barium is sprayed over flight paths and found in jet
fuel. In 1971, she swam in the Savannah River when 137Cs was
discharged into surface waters. For twenty years, she lived in a
county with high 137Cs accumulation due to global fallout (Anspaugh
LR, 2000). She also received a diagnostic barium X-ray in her
fifties because of chronic constipation.'
