Injury of tissues and organs due to cell death. Characterised by a threshold dose and an increase in the severity of the reaction as the dose is increased further. Also termed ‘tissue reaction’. In some cases, deterministic effects are modifiable by post-irradiation procedures including biological response modifiers.

Injury in populations of cells characterised by a threshold dose and an increase in the severity of the reaction as the dose is increased further. Also termed ‘tissue reaction’. In some cases deterministic effects are modifiable by post- irradiation procedures including biological response modifiers.

Injury in populations of cells characterised by a threshold dose and an increase in the severity of the reaction as the dose is increased. It is also termed ‘tissue reaction’. In some cases deterministic effects are modifiable by post-irradiation procedures including biological response modifiers.
