"ETV Feature" Who will save lives Doctors' nuclear accident "NHK
Immediately after the explosion at TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, many doctors from Hiroshima and other areas entered the site and were at the forefront of radiation medicine, including treatment of contaminated residents and SDF personnel injured by the explosion.
