We can plot (Diederichs <ref name="Di06">K. Diederichs (2006). Some aspects of quantitative analysis and correction of radiation damage. Acta Cryst D62, 96-101 [http://strucbio.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/strucbio/files/Diederichs_ActaD62_96.pdf]</ref>) | |||

R_{d} = \frac{\sum_{hkl} \sum_{|i-j|=d} \vert I_{hkl,i} - I_{hkl,j}\vert}{\sum_{hkl} \sum_{|i-j|=d} (I_{hkl,i} + I_{hkl,j})/2} | |||

which gives us the average R-factor of two reflections measured d frames apart. As long as the plot is parallel to the x axis there is no radiation damage. As soon as the plot starts to rise, we see that there's a systematical error contribution due to radiation damage. | |||
Strong wiggles at very high d are irrelevant as only few reflections contribute. | |||
