Relative Biological Effectiveness of Various Types of Radiations

Abstract

A substantial influence upon the biological effect may be exerted by the distribution of the dose with time (time factors). In radiobiology, the time factor is considered to be the change in the biological effect of radiation with changing dose rate or when a summary dose is broken down into individual fractions, differing in magnitude and administered at various intervals.
