The number of micronuclei increases with theradiation dose. A good correlation was found between the radiosensitivity determined by the micro-nucleus assay and that measured by the colony-forming assay in CNE-1 cell line (r=-0.998). Moreover, the results of micronucleus assay for tumor cells from biopsies of patients with primary carcinoma look promising for the prediction of tumor radiosensitivity. These results are encouraging but fleed to be confirmed with a larger number of patients with a longer follow-up.展开更多

The volume of isotopes released out of the massif at the borderline of the near/far field from the DGR was determined. The paper results showed that ground water flow and transport of substances within the area were first to be determined. The Flow123D SW was used for the determination. The resulting outcome represents a determination of transported substances concentration depending on time. The disadvantage of the model is the fact that all the input parameters were set deterministically. The problem is solved by using the sensitivity analysis （changing the input parameters） or using the Monte Carlo Method. The major results are： calculations of the radionuclide concentrations in the elements depending on time and determination of parameters that have the biggest impact on the sensitivity of the whole model.展开更多
