Typical doses and dose rates in studies pertinent to radiation risk inference at low doses and low dose rates [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Radiation Research, 2018
In order to quantify radiation risks at exposure scenarios relevant for radiation protection, often extrapolation of data obtained at high doses and high dose rates down to low doses and low dose rates is needed. Task Group TG91 on 'Radiation Risk Inference at Low-dose and Low-dose Rate Exposure for Radiological Protection Purposes' of the ...

Evaluation of DNA damage and stress in wildlife chronically exposed to low-dose, low-dose rate radiation from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2021
The health effects associated with chronic low-dose, low-dose rate (LD-LDR) exposures to environmental radiation are uncertain. All dose-effect studies conducted outside controlled laboratory conditions are challenged by inherent complexities of ...

Low‐dose‐rate brachytherapy for prostate cancer: A 15‐year experience in Japan

open access: yesInternational journal of urology, 2020
The history of prostate brachytherapy has passed one century. In 1983, modern low‐dose‐rate prostate brachytherapy using a transrectal ultrasound‐guided procedure was introduced.

Radiation dose rate effects: what is new and what is needed?

open access: yesRadiation and Environmental Biophysics, 2022
Despite decades of research to understand the biological effects of ionising radiation, there is still much uncertainty over the role of dose rate.

High dose rate brachytherapy as monotherapy for localised prostate cancer : a hypofractionated two-implant approach in 351 consecutive patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: To report the clinical outcome of high dose rate brachytherapy as sole treatment for clinically localised prostate cancer. METHODS: Between March 2004 and January 2008, a total of 351 consecutive patients with clinically localised prostate ...

Absence of a dose-rate effect in the transformation of C3H 10T1/2 cells by α-particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The findings of Hill et al. (1984) on the greatly enhanced transformation frequencies at very low dose rates of fission neutrons induced us to perform an analogous study with -particles at comparable dose rates. Transformation frequencies were determined

Immunological and hematological outcomes following protracted low dose/low dose rate ionizing radiation and simulated microgravity

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Using a ground-based model to simulate spaceflight [21-days of single-housed, hindlimb unloading (HLU) combined with continuous low-dose gamma irradiation (LDR, total dose of 0.04 Gy)], an in-depth survey of the immune and hematological systems of mice ...

ELIMINATION OF LOW DOSE HYPER-RADIOSENSITIVITY IN T-47D CELLS : The significance of dose-rate and oxygen level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Like the majority of investigated cell lines, T-47D breast cancer cells display a pronounced low dose hyper-radiosensitivity when irradiated with 60Co ƒ×-rays.

New Concerns for Neurocognitive Function during Deep Space Exposures to Chronic, Low Dose-Rate, Neutron Radiation

open access: yeseNeuro, 2019
As NASA prepares for a mission to Mars, concerns regarding the health risks associated with deep space radiation exposure have emerged. Until now, the impacts of such exposures have only been studied in animals after acute exposures, using dose rates ∼1 ...
