Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms underlying the unequivocal association between ionizing radiation and the development of leukaemia remain unknown. Recent progress in defining sub-cellular events has contributed to our understanding of the production of genetic lesions in irradiated cells but the importance of tissue effects in response to radiation damage has attracted much less attention. Thus, genetic lesions induced by...
