Abstract:
Biodosimetry is a well-established field in science as well as diagnostics and is essential in various areas of application such as dose reconstruction after an accidental radiation exposure. However, depending on the medical issue the purpose of biodosimetry might differ. In this presentation, we will discuss about the contribution of biodosimetry regarding three medical subjects such as (i) diagnosis of acute effects after ionising radiation (Acute Radiation Syndrome), (ii) impact in the field of conventional and molecular epidemiology and (iii) occupational medicine.
