Personalized radiation treatment is an important goal in oncology. As a result, one of the main challenges radiobiology today predicting patient?s tissue radiosensitivity so that personalized can be tailored to individual. For first time since 2016, group from Institute Oncology and Radiology Serbia has begun performing translational research field radiobiology. The aim these studies identify m...

Modern medicine cannot exist without diagnostic and therapeutic methods that are based on ionizing radiation. Therefore it is necessary to understand interactions between this form of energy living matter make a full use progress in radiobiology. Ionizing radiation widely used for relatively long time, how known, disproportionately huge doses particularly harmful organisms including humans. How...

During the last decades, new radionuclide-based targeted therapies have emerged as efficient tools for cancer treatment. Targeted radionuclide therapies (TRTs) are based on a multidisciplinary approach that involves the cooperation of specialists in several research fields. Among them, radiobiologists investigate the biological effects of ionizing radiation, specifically the molecular and cellu...

In addition to the physical advantages (Bragg peak), the use of charged particles in cancer therapy can be associated with distinct biological effects compared to X-rays. While heavy ions (densely ionizing radiation) are known to have an energy- and charge-dependent increased Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE), protons should not be very different from sparsely ionizing photons. A slightly...
