description | The interaction of radiation with cells and tissues has a random nature. Therefore, understanding
the random nature of cell killing that is determined by Poisson distribution
statistics is an essential point in education of radiation biology. RadBioStat is a newly
developed educational MATLAB-based software designed for computer-assisted
learning of the target theory in radiation biology. Although its potential applications is
developing rapidly, currently RadBioStat software can be a useful tool in computerassisted
education of radiobiological models such as single target single hit, multiple
target single hit and multiple target multiple hit. Scholars’ feedback is valuable to the
producers of this software and help them continuously improve this product, add new
features and increase its desirability and functionality. |
