Genome damage in testicular seminoma patients seven years after radiotherapy.

abstract：PURPOSE:The extreme radiotoxicity of Auger electrons and their exquisite capacity to irradiate specific molecular sites has prompted scientists to extensively investigate their radiobiological effects. Their efforts have been punctuated by quadrennial international symposia that have focused on biophysical aspects of A...
