The growing importance of radiation worker studies
Large radiation worker studies have the potential to provide precise risk estimates for protracted exposure to low-level ionising radiation. Recent worker studies have reported statistically discernible dose-related increased risks of cancer; however, results must be interpreted with care, and occup...

Recent worker studies have reported statistically discernible dose-related increased risks of cancer; however, results must be interpreted with care, and occupational radiation doses need to be treated with particular attention. |
