"The exact mechanism of cell death due to radiation is still an area of active investigation. A large body of evidence supports double-stranded breaks of nuclear DNA as the most important cellular effect of radiation. This breakage leads to irreversible loss of the reproductive integrity of the cell and eventual cell death. "
