The ability to distinguish between spontaneous and radiation-induced cancers in humans is expected to improve the resolution of estimated risk from low dose radiation." "Mammary carcinomas were obtained from Sprague-Dawley rats that were either untreated (n = 45) or acutely gamma-irradiated ( I Gy; n = 20) at seven weeks of age.
