Biomarkers to Predict Lethal Radiation Injury to the Rat Lung

Biomarkers to Predict Lethal Radiation Injury to the Rat Lung

Currently, there are no biomarkers to predict lethal lung injury by radiation. Since it is not ethical to irradiate humans, animal models must be used to identify biomarkers. Injury to the female WAG/RijCmcr rat has been well-characterized after exposure to eight doses of whole thorax irradiation: 0...
