Abstract
Jejunal crypt survival after fractionated total body irradiation of C3H mice given at dose rates of 1.2 or 0.08 Gy [gray]/min was studied. The fractionation effect was more pronounced at the high dose rate than at the low dose rate. Analysis of the data according to the linear-quadratic survival curve model yielded an .alpha./.beta. value at 1.2 Gy/min of 13.3 Gy and 0.08 Gy/min of 96 Gy.Keywords
