Assessment of early and late DNA damages in interventional radiologists exposed to protracted low dose and dose rate of X-radiation
Occupational radiation exposures for interventionalists are considered as the highest received doses among medical practitioners and contributing a risk of DNA damage. A significantly higher γ-H2AX foci and unstable chromosomal aberrations (p > 0.001) was observed in Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes (PBL) of medical professionals when compared to healthy volunteers, whereas translocations did not show any difference. The results suggest that low-dose protracted radiation exposure can induce DNA damages in PBL and can get repaired or misrepaired and develop into chromosomal aberrations.
期刊介绍:
The IJLR is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the publication of research articles, review papers and technical notes in all domains related to low-dose radiation, among which are the biological and health effects in humans and the biota, in vitro and in vivo research on low radiation effects, regulatory and policy aspects, risk estimation and public perception.
