  2. Oxygen enhancement ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_enhancement_ratio

    The oxygen enhancement ratio (OER) or oxygen enhancement effect in radiobiology refers to the enhancement of therapeutic or detrimental effect of ionizing radiation due to the presence of oxygen. This so-called oxygen effect [ 1 ] is most notable when cells are exposed to an ionizing radiation dose .

  3. Oxygen effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_effect

    The best known explanation of the oxygen effect is the oxygen fixation hypothesis developed by Alexander in 1962, [9] which posited that radiation-induced non-restorable or "fixed" nuclear DNA lesions are lethal to cells in the presence of diatomic oxygen. [10] [11] Recent hypotheses include one based on oxygen-enhanced damage from first ...

  6. FLASH Radiotherapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLASH_Radiotherapy

    Multiple studies have investigated this possibility, one being Jin. et al., 2020, where it was observed that circulating blood cells experienced a significantly lower impact during FLASH-RT, resulting in the killing of only 5-10% of cells, in contrast, CONV-RT exhibited a much more substantial effect, leading to the death of 90-100% of cells. [14]

    This template may be used to display a person's or entity's whole lifespan in years, and optionally their final age or duration, also in years; the Gregorian calendar and AD/CE era are respectively, the implied default calendar and editable default era. Astronomical dates are not specifically handled; negative years are not allowed, but year '0' (zero) may be used when applicable. All date ...

  8. Tumor hypoxia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor_hypoxia

    Tumor stroma and extracellular matrix in hypoxia. Tumor hypoxia is the situation where tumor cells have been deprived of oxygen.As a tumor grows, it rapidly outgrows its blood supply, leaving portions of the tumor with regions where the oxygen concentration is significantly lower than in healthy tissues.

    This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible. To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:
