Abstract
The study summarizes and critically evaluates research on agents modifying the biological effects of radiation related to public health interests. The review includes the classes of agents that have been employed in the modification of the biological effects of radiation, their mechanisms of action, comparative effectiveness and toxicity, the methodology used in evaluating these agents, and their effectiveness against various radiation exposures. The conclusions of the report identify a general order for priority for future research.
