✦ Synopsis
at which hypersensitive cells with radiation-induced damage are committed to undergo correct repair of genomic damage. Further, our results indicate that very fast molecular events are associated with the commitment of cells to the correct repair pathway. Results also indicate a relatively large probability for misrepair that leads to genomic instability. Our results are consistent with the view that for very low doses, dose rate is not an important variable for characterizing low-LET radiation risks so long as age-related changes in sensitivity do not occur during irradiation.
