Abstract
Existing mathematical formulations to predict the frequency of radiation induced chromosome aberrations in 2nd post-irradiation division are based on the Poisson distribution [3, 4]. Meanwhile several studies have shown that intercellular distributions exist, deviating from Poisson. In the present study a modified model was developed which permits the application of empirical distributions. Transmission and survival parameters of aberrations can be iteratively computed. A general formula was derived for the calculation of cell survival from 1st to 2nd division.
