From the publication:

Foreword

The calculations presented here, and in the other reports of this CNR series,
represent a first approximation of the biological hazards from plutonium exposure.
In essence, these are studies of the dosimetry of plutonium exposure. There are
certaincritical voids in mankind's knowledge of the physical and physiological
parameters which determine the dosimetry, and thus we have made necessary
assumptions which are all clearly identified.
It is anticipated that as additional data become available, the calculations herein
will be updated to take them into account.
