Perspectives in low dose risk estimation.

Abstract excerpt

Currently, debate ranges from whether very low doses have disproportionately large consequences, to whether there is a practical threshold. Whilst epidemiology forlow doses can achieve somewhathigherpowerfrom conflation of results, the uncertainties are such that advances in radiobiology are essential. Conceptually, deviations from low-dose linearity can arise from changes in the cell, or in neighbouring cells,...
