Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation cataractogenesis: a review of recent studies.
Elizabeth A. Ainsbury,Simon Bouffler,Wolfgang Dörr,Jochen Graw,Colin R. Muirhead,Alan Edwards,J. Cooper +6 more
TL;DR: The combined results of recent mechanistic and human studies regarding induction of cataracts by ionizing radiation indicate that the threshold forCataract development is certainly less than was previously estimated, or that radiation cataractogenesis may in fact be more accurately described by a linear, no-threshold model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of retrospective dosimetry techniques for external ionising radiation exposures
Elizabeth A. Ainsbury,Elena Bakhanova,Joan Francesc Barquinero,Maria Brai,Maria Brai,Vadim V. Chumak,Virgilio Correcher,Firouz Darroudi,Paola Fattibene,Paola Fattibene,Gaëtan Gruel,I.

Rakic,Horst Romm,François Trompier,Ivan Veronese,P. Voisin,Anne Vral,Caroline A. Whitehouse,Albrecht Wieser,Clemens Woda,Andrzej Wojcik,Kai Rothkamm +34 more
TL;DR: In this article, established and emerging dosimetry methods are reviewed, which can be used immediately and retrospectively following external ionising radiation exposure, and individual characteristics of these techniques, their limitations and potential for further development are discussed, and their usefulness in specific exposure scenarios is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dose estimation software for radiation biodosimetry
TL;DR: “Dose Estimate” is a collection of mathematical and statistical methods based on the cytogenetic methods that are used for biodosimetry at the Health Protection Agency and elsewhere in the radiation cytogenetics community.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ionizing radiation induced cataracts: Recent biological and mechanistic developments and perspectives for future research.
Elizabeth A. Ainsbury,Stephen Barnard,Scott Bright,Claudia Dalke,Miguel Jarrin,Sarah Kunze,Richard Tanner,Joseph R. Dynlacht,Roy A. Quinlan,Jochen Graw,Munira Kadhim,Nobuyuki Hamada +11 more
TL;DR: A fuller understanding of how exposure to relatively low doses of IR promotes induction and/or progression of IR-induced cataracts will have important implications for prevention and treatment of this disease, as well as for the field of radiation protection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automatic scoring of dicentric chromosomes as a tool in large scale radiation accidents
Horst Romm,Elizabeth A. Ainsbury,Stephen Barnard,Leonardo Barrios,Joan Francesc Barquinero,Christina Beinke,M Deperas,Eric Gregoire,Koivistoinen A,Carita Lindholm,Jayne Moquet,Ursula Oestreicher,Roser Puig,Kai Rothkamm,Sylwester Sommer,Hubert Thierens,Veerle Vandersickel,Anne Vral,Andrzej Wojcik +18 more
TL;DR: Semi-automated dicentric scoring is a useful tool in a large scale radiation accident as it enables high throughput screening of samples for fast triage of potentially exposed individuals.
