The cornerstones of science advancement are rigor in performing scientific research,
reproducibility of research findings and unbiased reporting of design and results of the …

Purpose: Two quality controlled inter-laboratory exercises were organized within the EU
project 'Realizing the European Network of Biodosimetry (RENEB)'to further optimize the …

Predicting the responses of biological systems to ionising radiation is extremely challenging,
particularly when comparing X-rays and heavy charged particles, due to the uncertainty in …

The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) calculations used during the planning of ion
therapy treatments are generally based on the microdosimetric kinetic model (MKM) and the …

The goal of the RENEB inter-laboratory comparison 2021 exercise was to simulate a large-
scale radiation accident involving a network of biodosimetry labs. Labs were required to …

Introduction In the event of a radiological accident or incident, the aim of biological dosimetry
is to convert the yield of a specific biomarker of exposure to ionizing radiation into an …

Purpose: A European network was initiated in 2012 by 23 partners from 16 European
countries with the aim to significantly increase individualized dose reconstruction in case of …

Preclinical researchers have long acknowledged the critical need for accurate dosimetry in
the conduct of radiation-exposure studies involving living systems. Although radiation …

Purpose Biological and/or physical assays for retrospective dosimetry are valuable tools to
recover the exposure situation and to aid medical decision making. To further validate and …

After large-scale radiation accidents where many individuals are suspected to be exposed to
ionizing radiation, biological and physical retrospective dosimetry assays are important tools …
