Neoplastic TransformationIn Vitroafter Exposure to Low Doses of Mammographic-Energy X Rays: Quantitative and Mechanistic Aspects

Abstract: The induction of neoplastic transformation in vitro after exposure of HeLa x skin fibroblast hybrid cells to low doses of mammography-energy (28 kVp) X rays has been studied. The data indicate no evidence of an increase in transformation frequency over the range 0.05 to 22 cGy, and doses in the range 0.05 to 1.1 cGy may result in suppression of transformation frequencies to levels below that seen spontaneously. This finding is not consistent with a linear, no-threshold dose- response curve. The dose range at w… Show more

“…is the undefined dose dissipation function developed further in Section 2.9, applied to the Ko et al (2004) tion and fading, is that the data indicates the AR protection persisting up to 38 hours and fading does not begin until this "threshold" time, t 0 = 38 hours, as shown in the Figure 1C of Leonard (2007b). We have premised that the fading stems from two causes, i.e.…”

“…Perhaps even more significant are the AR radio-protection from the low energy mammogram (Ko et al 2004) and diagnostic (Redpath et al 2003) X-rays that has led to conclusions that the low energy mammography X-rays do not result in excessive cancer risk as premised by others (Heyes et al 2004 but conversely provides potential protection from breast cancer (Redpath andMitchel 2006, Redpath 2007). For analysis purposes, the Koana et al (2004) provides only several data points of chromosome mutation frequencies and not sufficient for detailed microdosimetry model analysis.…”
