Research Abstract |
To elucidate mechanisms underlying biological responses of heavy-ion irradiated cells, a targeting method of subcellular regions using focusing heavy-ion microbeam was developed. An installation of a cell targeting system, an establishment of protocol for preparing target sample, and a development of an image analysis code that can extract cell coordinates from fluorescent-dye-stained cell image were carried out. The developed system was able to target and irradiate individual cultured cells using focusing heavy-ion microbeam.
