This paper briefly reviews the contributions made by human tissue studies to improved understanding of the biokinetics, dosimetry and potential bioeffects of plutonium in man. It includes consideration of tissue donations from both environmental and occupational populations, along with a brief history of human experience with plutonium and consideration of the bioethical aspects of post-mortem human tissue sampling.
