Roles of ionizing radiation in cell transformation

Cornelius A. Tobias, Norman W. Albright, T. C. Yang

Open full text 5 citations

Abstract

Earlier the authors described a repair misrepair model (RMR-I) which is applicable for radiations of low LET, e.g., x rays and gamma rays. RMR-II was described later. Here is introduced a mathematical modification of the RMR model, RMR-III, which is intended to describe lethal effects caused by heavily ionizing tracks. 31 references, 4 figures.
