Simulation of the effect of mucociliary clearance on the bronchial distribution of inhaled radon progenies and related cellular damage using a new deposition and clearance model for the lung

Most of the current dosimetry models of inhaled short-lived radon decay products assume uniform activity distributions along the bronchial airways. In reality, however, both deposition and clearance patterns of inhaled radon progenies are highly inhomogeneous. Consequently, a new deposition-clearanc...
