Chromosomal Abnormalities in Human Lymphocytes after Computed Tomography Scan Procedure
24 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
The incidence of chromosomal abnormalities and cancer risk correlates well with the radiation dose after exposure to moderate- to high-dose ionizing radiation. However, the biological effects and health risks at less than 100 mGy, e.g., from computed tomography (CT) have not been ascertained. To investigate the biological effects of low-dose exposure from a CT procedure, we examined chromosomal aberrations,...
