Effects of field size on the incidence of skin healing and the survival of epidermal colony-forming cells after irradiation

Description
The present study was designed to measure cell survival and skin healing (lack of necrosis) after irradiation of different lengths of mouse tail. It is concluded that the field-size effect in this system, in terms of gross skin response, is reflected by similar changes in the survival of colony-forming cells, and that the effect may be caused by a difference in sensitivity of the cells.
