Understanding Radiation Damage to Cells Using Microbeams
Cellular micro-irradiation using ion beams is now recognised as a highly versatile technique for understanding how ionising radiation interacts with living cells and tissues. The strength of the micro-irradiation technique lies in its ability to deliver precise doses of radiation to selected individual cells (or sub-cellular targets) in vitro. The application of this technique in the field of r...
متن کاملApplications of High-Throughput Clonogenic Survival Assays in High-LET Particle Microbeams
Charged particle therapy is increasingly becoming a valuable tool in cancer treatment, mainly due to the favorable interaction of particle radiation with matter. Its application is still limited due, in part, to lack of data regarding the radiosensitivity of certain cell lines to this radiation type, especially to high-linear energy transfer (LET) particles. From the earliest days of radiation ...
متن کاملOverview of NASA's space radiation research program.
NASA is developing the knowledge required to accurately predict and to efficiently manage radiation risk in space. The strategy employed has three research components: (1) ground-based simulation of space radiation components to develop a science-based understanding of radiation risk; (2) space-based measurements of the radiation environment on planetary surfaces and interplanetary space, as we...
