-Radiation Sensitivity and Risk of Glioma
-Radiation has been identified as a risk factor for brain tumors. Bondy et al. (p. 1553) further investigated this association by comparing the
-radiation sensitivity of lymphocytes from glioma patients and of lymphocytes from matched control subjects.
-Radiation sensitivity, a measure of mutagen sensitivity, was assessed by counting the number of chromatid breaks. They found that the frequency of chromatid breaks was higher in glioma patients than in control subjects. They also found that the estimated relative risk for glioma increased
