The yield of DNA double-strand breaks produced intracellularly by ionizing radiation: a review.

abstract：PURPOSE:The fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) technique, which easily detects reciprocal translocations, is currently used to estimate doses in retrospective biological dosimetry, after suspected accidental overexposure to ionizing radiation (IR). This study of 42 cases aimed to verify the appropriateness of thi...
