the idea that normal tissue tolerance to radiation depends on how functional subunits are arranged, in series or in parallel, which explains volume effects.

In radiation oncology, functional subunit model refers to the idea that normal tissue tolerance to radiation depends on how functional subunits are arranged, in series or in parallel, which explains volume effects. This meaning comes from Rodney Withers (1988) in International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics.[1]
