Differential biological effect of low doses of ionizing radiation depending on the radiosensitivity in a cell line model
A differential biological effect was observed between two cell lines with different radiosensitivity, and these differences are especially interesting after a CT scan dose. If this is confirmed by further studies, one could think that individuals with radiosensitivity-related genetic variants may be more vulnerable to long-term effects of IR, potentially increasing cancer risk after LD exposure.
