Low-dose Radiation Effects

Low-Dose Radiation Effects is a class of radiobiological responses in cells, tissues, or organisms to ionizing radiation exposures at low doses (typically ≤100 mSv) or low dose rates, distinguished by dose–response characteristics—including stochastic risks, non-targeted and adaptive responses, and possible qualitative differences from high-dose effects—that arise specifically within this low-exposure range.
