Study of cytogenetic effects induced by accelerated ^sup 12^C ions with energy of 200 MeV/nucleon in mice

The study of the genetic effects of low doses of radiation with a high linear energy transfer (LET) is particularly relevant because some experimental data indicate that cancer is induced as a result of changes in the number and structure of chromosomes whereas other researchers believe that the eff...

Description
Summary:	The study of the genetic effects of low doses of radiation with a high linear energy transfer (LET) is particularly relevant because some experimental data indicate that cancer is induced as a result of changes in the number and structure of chromosomes whereas other researchers believe that the effect of chromosomal instability on tumor progression depends on the lesion of specific genes.
