The roots were fixed at 13 hours post-irradiation; anaphase and telophase chromosome aberrations were scored in groupings of bridges, breaks, fragments, rings and pole deficiencies. Dose response curves were obtained at centimetre depth intervals in the phantom and, from these, interpolated responses for different dose levels could be plotted as a function of depth.
