Cytometric methods to analyze radiation effects.
Here, we review the most relevant cytometric methods currently used to analyze ionizing radiation effects. Particular interest has been devoted to the following methods: chromosomal aberrations, micronucleus assay, fluorescence in situ hybridization chromosome painting, comet assay, comet-FISH assay as well as flow cytometry.
