VIENNA, Austria (AP) -- Ukrainian presidential candidate Viktor Yushchenko checked into an Austrian hospital to undergo new tests, and doctors said they wanted to re-examine him to assess whether his mysterious illness was caused by poisoning.

Whether poisoned or not, the change in his face is grotesque.

Dioxins are common pollutants - produced as the result of many industrial processes.

But toxicologists say little is known about the effect of such a large single dose.

"It's usually low-level, long-term poisoning," Professor John Henry of London's St Mary's hospital told the BBC.

"A very large dose, nobody has any real idea of what it would cause. Now we do know."

Unbelievable.
