There are three general categories of effects resulting from exposure to low doses of radiation. Theseare:
1. Genetic - The effect is suffered by the offspring of the individual exposed.
2. Somatic - The effect is primarily suffered by the individual exposed. Since cancer is theprimary result, it is sometimes called the Carcinogenic Effect.
3. In-utero - Some mistakenly consider this to be a genetic consequence of radiation exposure,because the effect, suffered by a developing embryo/fetus, is seen after birth.However, this is actually a special case of the somatic effect, since the embryo/fetusis the one exposed to the radiation.
State the medical case occured from Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accidents and explain briefly the three above categories in each accidents including the diagnosis and treament (if applicable).

- A woman who is eight (8) weeks pregnant requests a direct test for Huntington’s disease on her fetus. She tells her geneticist that she wants the test because she recently discovered that there is a family history of the disease in her husband’s family. One of his parents is affected so he is at 50% risk of developing the condition. She is adamant that she does not want to give birth to a baby who is at risk of developing Huntington’s and says that the test will help her to ensure that this is not the case. In counseling, she reveals that she has discussed this issue several times with her husband but he has always said he is not willing to take a test. He does not want to know his status and is extremely anxious about the possibility that he might develop the condition. The woman and her husband are currently separated but are seeing a relationship counselor and trying to work things out. Despite this, the woman says they tend to fight a lot. When it is explained to her in counseling…arrow_forwardSuppose you are a carrier of fragile X syndrome and want to have children. Would you choose pregnancy, adoption, or surrogacy? If you became pregnant, would you opt for prenatal diagnosis? Explain your decisions.arrow_forwardJan is concerned about using ART. She wants to be the genetic mother and have Darryl be the genetic father of any children they have. What methods of ART would you recommend to this couple? Jan, a 32-year-old woman, and her husband, Darryl, have been married for 7 years. They have attempted to have a baby on several occasions. Five years ago, they had a first-trimester miscarriage, followed by an ectopic pregnancy later the same year. Jan continued to see her OB/GYN physician for infertility problems but was very dissatisfied with the response. After four miscarriages, she went to see a fertility specialist, who diagnosed her with severe endometriosis and polycystic ovarian disease (detected by hormone studies). The infertility physician explained that these two conditions were hampering her ability to become pregnant and thus making her infertile. She referred Jan to a genetic counselor. At the appointment, the counselor explained to Jan that one form of endometriosis (MIM 131200) can be a genetic disorder, and that polycystic ovarian disease can also be a genetic disorder (MIM 184700) and is one of the most common reproductive disorders among women. The counselor recommended that a detailed family history of both Jan and Darryl would help establish whether Jans problems have a genetic component and whether any of her potential daughters would be at risk for one or both of these disorders. In the meantime, Jan is taking hormones, and she and Darryl are considering alternative modes of reproduction. Using the information in Figure 16.4, explain the reproductive options that are open to Jan and Darryl.arrow_forward
