A Parametric Method for Estimation of Dose-Modifying Factors: Low-Dose Extrapolation Limit

A parametric method for the estimation of dose-modifying factors (DMF) is developed, using the linear-quadratic model of radiation effect. The method presented here generalizes DMFs to include ratios, such as relative biological effectiveness (RBE), which may vary with dose. A statistical test for c...
