Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in blood lymphocytes of patients undergoing positron emission tomography (PET)/CT using γ-H2AX immunofluorescence microscopy and to differentiate between 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and CT-induced DNA lesions.Keywords
