A statistical model that expresses the risk of an effect E (e.g. disease, death, or abnormality) as the sum of two components: one proportional to dose (linear term) and the other proportional to the square of dose (quadratic term).
''E=αD+βD<sup>2</sup>'', where D is dose. For cell survival: ''S =exp-(αD+βD<sup>2</sup>)''.
