Therefore, we aimed to construct a dose\u2013response curve using a semi-automatic cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) analysis method that can be easily analysed and utilised by anyone. CHO-K1 cells were exposed to gamma rays at various doses (0\u20134 Gy). For the CBMN assay, the bi-nucleated cells were selected and captured, and micronuclei (MN) scoring was automatically performed using the Metafer4 system. The MN scores were manually confirmed and corrected by analysts. Using the frequency distributions of MN according to the radiation dose, the dose\u2013response calibration curve was generated using Dose Estimate v5.2 software. The equation of dose\u2013response calibration curve is Y = 0.0299 (\u00b10.0057) + 0.1502 (\u00b10.0151) \u00d7 D + 0.0111 (\u00b10.0048) \u00d7 D\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    . The goodness-of-fit parameters were also calculated (chi-squared [\n                    <jats:italic>\u03c7<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                    ] = 39.45, degrees of freedom = 5,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.0000). The semi-automated CBMN assay consist of two steps: the automated MN capture\/scoring step and the manual confirmation\/correction step. Using an established dose\u2013response calibration curve and the procedure of the semi-automated CBMN assay, the dose-estimation of gamma-irradiated (0.5 or 2 Gy) CHO-K1 cells were performed by two analysts individually, and it was inter-compared to verify the accuracy, the results showed that the estimated doses were a good fit the applied doses of radiation. The CBMN assay using CHO-K1 cells can be easily used as a biodosimetry tool for dose assessment of medical radiation equipment due to the advantage of being simple, easy, and quick to measure the dose.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.14293\/genint.15.1.003","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,13]],"date-time":"2025-05-13T23:15:12Z","timestamp":1747178112000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Establishment of a Radiation Dose\u2013Response Calibration Curve Using a Rapid Cytokinesis-block Micronucleus Assay for Dose Assessment of Medical Radiation Equipment"],"prefix":"10.14293","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Ji Young","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-8080-9524","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Seong-Jun","family":"Cho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hoon","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jeongin","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Il Hyeok","family":"Seo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Se Hyun","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mooyoung","family":"Yoo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"5403","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"reference":[{"key":"r1","volume-title":"Cytogenetic Dosimetry: Applications in Preparedness for and Response to Radiation Emergencies","author":"IAEA","year":"2011"},{"key":"r2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"127","DOI":"10.1667\/RR1549.1","article-title":"WHO 1st consultation on the development of a global biodosimetry laboratories network for radiation emergencies (BioDoseNet)","volume":"171","author":"WF Blakely","year":"2009","journal-title":"Radiat.
