[Prevention of cancer and the dose-effect relationship: the carcinogenic effects of ionizing radiations].

Abstract excerpt

Cancer prevention has to be based on robust biological and epidemiological data, therefore its reappraisal becomes mandatory in view of recent progress in the understanding of carcinogenesis. The first phase of the carcinogenic process, that of initiation, is generally associated with mutation; however the role of extrinsic mutagens is less critical than was thought two decades ago.
