Abstract:In order to understand the mechanism of denudation of intestine mucosa after irradiation stress with doses used in cancer radiotherapy, rats were whole body irradiated using 60-Co-gamma rays at three doses and two dose rates. Fragments of duodenum mucosa were take off 24 or 48 h after irradiation, and processed for microscopy observations. For each dose and dose rate, one thousand 2 micrometerthick serial epon sections were pictured and digital images were imported into softwares, ImageJ and Reconstruct for 3d… Show more
