Dose-response relationship in radiation leukæmia


Play all audios:

    

ABSTRACT A SIGNIFICANT contribution is achieved by Drs. Armitage, Court Brown and Doll in evaluating some models postulated in assessing the leukæmogenic potency of radiations. Along this


line, it appears relevant to discuss some possible interpretations of a linear dose-response, observed over a limited range of leukæmia incidence, as evidenced in the study of patients


irradiated for ankylosing spondilytis. Basic assumptions of some theoretical models will be first examined. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription
