Mathematical model for the frequency of radiation carcinogenesis at low doses

Abstract

It is pointed out that the observed effect-function dependence on the dose is predicted theoretically by an additive superposition of 1-cell and N-cell contributions. This is illustrated quantitatively by solving an idealized mathematical model in which the 1-cell and N-cell effect-probabilities are postulated to have very simple statistical forms.
