This treatment can cause side effects, but they're different for everyone. The ones you have depend on the type of radiation you get, how much you get, the part of your body that gets treatment, and how healthy you are overall. There's no way to predict how radiation will affect you....

E is intended to equate the relative risk of inducing fatal cancer from a partial body dose (such as radon progeny in the lungs) to the whole body dose that would have the same risk of inducing fatal cancer. The effective dose cannot be measured, and it is difficult to calculate. ...
breathing radioactive smoke, gases, dust or particles into the lungs. ingestion: drinking or eating materials that possess radioactive elements. contamination happens when a person makes physical contact with, inhales or ingests radioactive substances. contamination may happen when radioactive substances...
Briefly, the rats were anesthetized using an intraperitoneal chloral hydrate injection, followed by back hair removal and supine fixation on a special platform (Fig. 1). A spherical target with a diameter of 0.5 cm in the right middle lung was set, and both lungs were scanned by CT with a...
Aerosol delivery of beclin1 enhanced the anti-tumor effect of radiation in the lungs of K-rasLA1 mice To minimize the side-effects of radiotherapy, fractionated exposures (five times, 24-h interval) with low dose (2聽Gy) of radiation to the restricted ... J.-Y.,Shin,H.-T.,... -...
Collectively, our findings indicate that thoracic radiation promotes the recruitment and polarization of macrophages in the lungs, which have been consistently implicated in the regulation of RILI. Moreover, these results suggest a potential interaction between the activation of the STING signaling pathway...
[32] observed an increase in sister chromatid exchanges in rats that were previously exposed to alpha-particle emitting radon and suggested that clastogenic factors might have been translocated from the lungs to the bone marrow of rats that were exposed to alpha-particles. Although the plasma ...

Genetic phenotypes: Genetic variation in crucial genes in DNA replication and repair, inflammation, and oxidative stress pathways, may either ameliorate or exacerbate the effects of a given radiation dose on the lungs. The risk of RP increases as the number of unfavorable genotypes increases (see ...
