Abstract
The doses producing 50% lethal effect in 4 days, and in 30 days, were measured for mice, irradiated in 15 min. or 24 hr. The results confirm the sparing effect of the lower dose-rate, and suggest that this effect may vary with different types of tissue.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
