Effect of low-dose X-rays on the liver of whole-body irradiated rats.

CONCLUSIONS: Under the present experimental conditions, There is no evidence that 10cGy-irradiation protected the liver cells against a subsequent higher dose. The significant effect of 10 cGy-irradiation emphasizes the low-dose radiation associated risk. PMID: 30507334 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
