Computer Simulation in Cell Radiobiology

This research monograph demonstrates the possible ways of using stochastic simulation for exploring cell kinetics, emphasising the effects of cell radiobiology. In vitro kinetics of normal and irradiated cells is the main subject, but some approaches to the simulation of controlled cell systems are considered as well: the epithelium of the small intestine in mice taken as a case in point. Of particular interest is the evaluation of simulation modelling as a tool for gaining insight into bio...
