Solid tumor risks after high doses of ionizing radiation.
There is increasing concern regarding radiation-related second-cancer risks in long-term radiotherapy survivors and a corresponding need to be able to predict cancer risks at high radiation doses. Although cancer risks at moderately low radiation doses are reasonably understood from atomic bomb survivor studies, there is much more uncertainty at the high doses used in radiotherapy. It has gener...
متن کاملBiodosimetry of Persons Chronically Exposed to Low and Therapeutic Doses of Ionizing Radiation
Dynamic changes of the chromosomal aberrations and the DNA damage were analyzed in individuals exposed to low and therapeutic doses of radiation. The investigation included 37 persons living in areas where the radioactive sources were discovered 10-12 years ago. It was established by biodosimetry methods that the examined persons had absorbed dose of 0.2-0.7 Gy or had increased number of chromo...
متن کاملGene-Expression Biomarkers for Application to High-Throughput Radiation Biodosimetry
Molecular biodosimetry tools are a valuable asset for life-saving medical triage and patient management following a radiological or nuclear disaster. Even with the delayed onset of symptoms, sometimes several days after exposure, gene-expression biomarkers can identify these exposed individuals very early after exposure, allowing for prompt medical intervention. This early assessment of a radia...
متن کاملCorrection: A New Model of Biodosimetry to Integrate Low and High Doses
Biological dosimetry, that is the estimation of the dose of an exposure to ionizing radiation by a biological parameter, is a very important tool in cases of radiation accidents. The score of dicentric chromosomes, considered to be the most accurate method for biological dosimetry, for low LET radiation and up to 5 Gy, fits very well to a linear-quadratic model of dose-effect curve assuming the...
متن کاملINF/IL-4 increases after the low doses of gamma radiation in BALB/c spleen lymphocytes
Introduction: The effects of the low dose of ionizing radiation are not thoroughly evident due to an unavoidable increase of occupational exposure and the widespread application of ionizing radiation in medical and industrial fields. The aim of this study was to investigate immune system responses following the low doses of ionizing radiation. Materia...
