Description
The study of behavioral reactions, EEG and morphological changes in nerve tissue is essential to assess the risks of acute and long-term effects of radiation therapy for malignant tumors in the brain. This work presents the results of experiments to estimate the level of anxiety, exploratory and motor activity, working memory and EEG of rats after local single irradiation of the brain at a dose of 10 Gy at the JINR SARRP LRB facility. The irradiated animals showed a decrease in the power spectrum of the EEG and an increase in the level of anxiety in the early and long-term periods. The correlation analysis indicates the relationship of changes in power spectrum with behavioral reactions characterizing exploratory behavior and anxiety.
