Abstract excerpt
Recent research in molecular radiation carcinogenesis is reviewed with the specific aim of exploring the implications this research may have on the dose response relationship of radiation-induced cancer at low doses and low dose rates. It is concluded that the linear non-threshold dose response hypothesis may be used in radiation protection planning as a simple, convenient method to optimize procedures and...
