Repopulation

•

is the slowest process and is of significance only below 1 Gy/min

•

Important in early reactions not occurring in late responding NT during the 6-7 weeks irradiation,

•

little effect in tumours for TT < 3 - 4 weeks, past this period, accelerated repopulation of fast-growing tumours can be observed
