although it has been shown that ionizing radiation can cause neoplastic cell transformation directly , that high-let heavy ions in general can be more effective than photons in transforming cells , and that the radiogenic cell transformation is a multi-step process [ correction of processes ] , we know very little about the molecular nature of lesions important for cell transformation , the relationship between lethal and transformational damages , and the evolution of initial damages into final chromosomal aberrations which alter the growth control of cells .
