Tissue as a Maze: Why FLASH Radiation Acts Unevenly
Imagine a city where streets are not straight but winding, with dead ends and hidden passages. A bike courier will take much longer to deliver a package than in a city with a regular grid of roads. Similarly, molecules inside living tissue: their path depends on how "tangled" the tissue structure is.
Scientists built a model that describes the movement of molecules in such a "tangled" environment.
