We examined the production of dicentrics in human lymphocytes irradiated with 29 kV X-rays to a depth of 13.5 mm in a PMMA phantom. For these irradiation conditions, which are appropriate for the diagnostic application of mammography X-rays, a coefficient of (5.88±0.66)×10–2 Gy–1 of the linear quadratic dose–response relationship was determined. This value does not differ significantly from the ...
