VA - Health Care - Gulf War, Agent Orange and Ionizing Radiation Registry Program

Program Description

In 1978, VA set up a register of Vietnam veterans who were worried that they might have been exposed to dangerous herbicides during their military service in Vietnam. Beginning in that year, Vietnam veterans were offered an extensive medical examination to look for possible health effects resulting from exposure to the herbicides-an exam that is still offered at all VA medical centers.

The "Agent Orange Registry" is a computerized index of all of those examinations.

Since that time, we have also set up registries for Gulf War veterans as well as for veterans who were exposed to ionizing radiation and depleted Uranium.
