'Fading times' required for apparently complete repair in irradiated tissues assuming the linear quadratic model of dose response
Description
The time required between well-separated pairs of doses of X-rays (e.g. 2F/day) for repairable damage to be apparently completed increases with dose per fraction and with the α/β ratio, even when the underlying half-life is invariant. (author)
