Figure 3From: Chromosomal radiosensitivity and acute radiation side effects after radiotherapy in tumour patients - a follow-up studyBox plot analysis of t(Ba) frequencies in 4 patient groups ordered according to temporal occurence of any side effects of the skin during the period of radiation therapy. Box area, 50% of data [lines in box denote medians; bars include at most 1.5 of interquartile distance, difference between first and third quartiles of data; circles indicate values out of the 1.5-fold box area (outliers)]. A significant correlation between the frequencies of t(Ba) from lymphocytes irradiated in vitro (3 Gy) and the time-dependent occurence of side effects is demonstrated.Back to article page
