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
Review of translocations detected by FISH for retrospective biological dosimetry applications
Alan Edwards,Carita Lindholm,Firouz Darroudi,G. Stephan,Horst Romm,Joan Francesc Barquinero,Leonardo Barrios,M. R. Caballín,Laurence Roy,Caroline A. Whitehouse,Tawn Ej,Jayne Moquet,David Lloyd,P. Voisin +13 more
TL;DR: The technique works and a lifetime dose to the bone marrow from low-linear energy transfer radiation of 0.5 Gy above normal background levels can be measured for any individual.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytogenetic analysis of lymphocytes from hospital workers occupationally exposed to low levels of ionizing radiation
Joan Francesc Barquinero,Leonardo Barrios,M. R. Caballín,Rafael Miró,Maria Ribas,Antoni Subias,J. Egozcue +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that acentric fragments are good indicators of exposure to very low doses of radiation, although no dose-effect correlation was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occupational Exposure to Radiation Induces an Adaptive Response in Human Lymphocytes
Joan Francesc Barquinero,Leonardo Barrios,M. R. Caballín,Rafael Miró,Maria Ribas,Antoni Subias,J. Egozcue +6 more
TL;DR: The results could indicate that an adaptive response can also be induced in lymphocytes in vivo by very low occupational doses of radiation, and that for biological dosimetry purposes it is necessary to know the individual's history of exposure to mutagens.
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.
