Biological dosimetry with cytogenetic endpoints.

Progress in clinical and biological research - 1 Jan 1991

Wolff S

Abstract excerpt

The induction of chromosome aberrations in the lymphocytes of people who have been exposed to ionizing radiation has provided a much-used quantifiable biological dosimeter with which it is possible to obtain a reliable estimate of the dose of radiation to which the people have been exposed. The induction of aberrations by truly radiomimetic (non-S-dependent) chemicals should also be capable of leading to an...
