Radiation-sensitive film compositions for measuring absorbed doses within the 100-1000 Gy range

open access: yesСтандартные образцы, 2019
This work was aimed at investigating the spectral features and dose sensitivities of film dosimetry systems developed at the All-Russian Research Institute for Physical-Engineering and Radiotechnical Metrology (VNIIFTRI) and approved as absorbed-dose ...

Low dose ionising radiation produces too few ROS to directly affect antioxidant concentrations in cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It has been hypothesized that radiation-induced oxidative stress is the mechanism for a wide range of negative impacts on biota living in radioactively contaminated areas around Chernobyl.

Different biological effectiveness of ionising and non-ionising radiations in mammalian cells [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Radio Science, 2007
It has been discussed ever since among the scientific communities, whether non-ionising radiation can alter or harm biological systems. While the mechanisms of underlying effects of ionising radiation are well understood and described here, there is less

A survey of radiation safety training among South African interventionalists

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Health Professions Education, 2018
Background. Ionising radiation is increasingly being used in modern medicine for diagnostic, interventional and therapeutic purposes. There has been an improvement in technology, resulting in lower doses being emitted.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Knowledge level of medical students about ionising radiation used for diagnostic purpose in radiology: a survey study

open access: yes, 2023
People exposed to ionising radiation may develop harmful somatic and genetic effects in their anatomical structures. Technological advancements, particularly in radiological devices, research and examinations result in a significant increase in the ...

Evaluation of the impact of a brief educational message on clinicians’ awareness of risks of ionising-radiation exposure in imaging investigations: a pilot pre-post intervention study

open access: yesBMC Health Services Research, 2019
Background In the context of increasing availability of computed tomography (CT) scans, judicious use of ionising radiation is a priority to minimise the risk of future health problems. Hence, education of clinicians on the risks and benefits of CT scans

Mutational signatures in tumours induced by high and low energy radiation in Trp53 deficient mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Mutational signatures induced by ionising radiation remain largely unexplored. Here in TP53 mutant mice, the authors characterise the genomic landscape of tumours induced by high- and low-energy radiation.

Control of Neuroinflammation through Radiation-Induced Microglial Changes

open access: yesCells, 2021
Microglia, the innate immune cells of the central nervous system, play a pivotal role in the modulation of neuroinflammation. Neuroinflammation has been implicated in many diseases of the CNS, including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
