Mitigation of injury to the skin after irradiation in 5 groups of rats (i–v, see Materials and Methods). Injury (Y-axis) was measured as % of total irradiated area that was injured (mean ± SEM). There was no injury in rats receiving no irradiation to the skin. Of rats given 30 Gy to the skin, the least injury was observed after combined thorax and skin irradiation followed by treatment with captopril at 7 days after irradiation and continued.
