Figure 2From: Prediction of clinical toxicity in localized cervical carcinoma by radio-induced apoptosis study in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs)Radio-induced apoptosis (RIA) of lymphocytes after 24, 48 and 72 hours. RIA values at 1, 2 and 8 Gy were adjusted perfectly to a semi logarithmic model where two constants were defined: α is the origin of the curve in the Y axis and determines the percentage of spontaneous cell death and β is the slope of the curve and determines the percentage of cell death induced at a determined radiation dose (β = ΔRIA/Δln(Gy)).Back to article page
