The differences were re- flected as significantly higher than ex- pected mean grades for Sq.M (P < 0 05 and P < 0-001 respectively). A Friedman non-parametric analysis of variance of ratio of observed mean grade to expected mean grade of Sq.M was carried out for groups I to 24 and the results showed: (1) a highly significant increase with dose level of SWS or fraction (P < 0.001).
