Cytogenetic BiodosimetryCytogenetic Biodosimetry
Cytogenetic analysis provides a method to estimate radiation dose to individuals exposed to ionizing radiation when
physical dosimetry devices are not available.

LymphocytesLymphocytes
Lymphocytes serve as ideal biological dosimeters because they: 1) are very sensitive to radiation,
2) are readily available in routine blood samples,
3) circulate throughout the body,
4) can be easily cultured and induced to divide in vitro
5) respond consistently to ionizing radiation exposure by expressing chromosomal DNA damage in a dose-dependent manner.

Cytogenetic Dosimetry Cytogenetic Dosimetry Capacity WorldwideCapacity Worldwide
Cytogenetic labs and regional networks already
collaborating with WHO:– North-American– Latin American (with IAEA support)– European– Scandinavian– Eastern Europe: RF and Ukraine– Western-Pacific: Japan, S. Korea, Australia
Need to integrate and coordinate these networks globally
Need a clear concept of operations for emergencies and in
"quiet" time to make the most of these labs joint capabilities
