Dose-Response Relationship between Head and Neck Radiation and Damages to Gustatory Cells in Mice
Objective. To investigate the dose-response relationship between radiation to the head and neck regions and damage observed in mice gustatory cells. Materials and Methods. A total number of 45 mice (C57BL/6) (aged 8–12 weeks) were enrolled in this study. The head and neck regions of the mice were irradiated at doses of 8 Gy (low-dose group, n = 15), 16

Site-specific dose-response relationships for cancer induction from the combined Japanese A-bomb and Hodgkin cohorts for doses relevant to radiotherapy [PDF]
Background and Purpose Most information on the dose-response of radiation-induced cancer is derived from data on the A-bomb survivors. Since, for radiation protection purposes, the dose span of main interest is between zero and one Gy, the analysis of ...

Analysis of Biologically Effective Dose for Retroactive Yttrium-90 Trans-arterial Radioembolization Treatment Optimization [PDF]
Trans-arterial radioembolization (TARE) is a protracted modality of radiation therapy where radionuclides labeled with Yttrium-90 (90Y) are inserted inside a patient\u27s hepatic artery to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Molecular Clouds Regulated by Radiation Feedback Forces II: Radiation-Gas Interactions and Outflows [PDF]
Momentum deposition by radiation pressure from young, massive stars may help to destroy molecular clouds and unbind stellar clusters by driving large-scale outflows. We extend our previous numerical radiation hydrodynamic study of turbulent, star-forming clouds to analyze the detailed interaction between non-ionizing UV radiation and the cloud material.

The Double Threshold: Consequences for Identifying Low-Dose Radiation Effects
Prior to observing low-dose-induced cell signaling and adaptive protection, radiogenic stochastic effects were assumed to be linearly related to absorbed dose.
