Abstract
This review article describes our simplified biophysical model for the response of a group of cells to ionizing radiation. The model, which is a product of 10years of studies, acts as (a) a comprehensive stochastic approach based on the Monte Carlo simulation with a probability tree and (b) the thereof derived detailed deterministic models describing the selected biophysical and radiobiological phenomena in an analytical manner. Specifically, the presented model describes effects such as the risk of neoplastic transformation of cells relative to the absorbed radiation dose, the dynamics of tumor development, the priming dose effect (also called the Raper-Yonezawa effect) based on the introduced adaptive response approach, and the bystander effect. The model is also modifiable depending on users' potential needs.
