Introduction. The atomic bomb survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are a significant population for the study of radiation induced human leukemia. Whole body irradiation is most likely the cause of the leukemia caused by the atomic bomb radiation.[1] Follow-up of Japanese adult survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki have revealed abnormally high rates of cancer, persistent chromosomal aberrations in circulating lymphocytes, and lenticular opacities.3] Finally, children of atomic bomb survivors, who received exposure in utero ionizing radiation, had diminished stature, small head size, mental retardation, and subsequent seizures. [3] Study of the aforementioned groups has provided essential knowledge on the health effects of atomic bomb radiation.

There are four broad classifications of leukemia: 1  Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). 2  Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
