Abstract
|
|
|
|
Biological dosimetry is the measurement of radiation-induced changes in the human to measure short and long-term health risks. Biodosimetry offers an independent means of obtaining dose information and also provides diagnostic information on the potential for “partial-body” exposure information using biological indicators and otherwise based on computer modeling, dose reconstruction, and physical dosimetry. A variety of biodosimetry tools are available and some features make some more valuable than others. Among the available biodosimetry tool, cytogenetic biodosimetry methods occupy an exclusive and advantageous position. The cytogenetic analysis can complement physical dosimetry by confirming or ruling out an accidental radiological exposure or overexposures. We are discussing the recent developments and adaptability of currently available cytogenetic biological dosimetry assays.
