Figure 11. Relationship between dose rate and the average time interval between two consecutive events that bring a given dose to the affected nanogram of tissue, here called microdose , depending on radiation quality. ROS, reactive oxygen species. The figure also lists the dose-rate-dependent frequency of events within 100 ng, i.e. cells, per day. N_H is the number of microdose events in exposed micromasses.
