Abstract
Non-invasive methods of express analysis for mass monitoring of pathol ogical states of human organism have been developed on the basis of X- ray fluorescence (XRF) elemental analysis of hair, nails, tooth enamel and skin. In addition, methods have been developed for studying sampl e preparations with the use of a universal X-ray fluorescence spectrom eter mounted on a VEPP-3 storage ring. Data have accumulated over seve ral geographical regions (Moscow Region, Chelyabinsk, Middle Asia, Nov osibirsk Region, Maritime Region). The data of XRF analysis of hair sa mples from patients and animals mirror reliably differences in element concentrations. The methods can be useful in clinical medicine.
