It Is Time to Move Beyond the Linear No-Threshold Theory for Low-Dose Radiation Protection
The US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) is the primary federal agency responsible for promulgating regulations and policies to protect people and the environment from ionizing radiation. Currently, the USEPA uses the linear no-threshold (LNT) model to estimate cancer risks and determine clean...
