7 Ιουλ 2023 · Excessive exposure to doses of radiation can increase the risk of certain types of cancer developing in the long term. Radioactive iodine can be released during nuclear emergencies, which, if breathed in or swallowed, will concentrate in the thyroid gland and increase the risk of thyroid cancer in younger people (of 0-18 years).
In large doses, radiation can cause serious tissue damage and increase a person’s risk of later developing cancer. The low doses of radiation used for imaging tests might increase a person’s cancer risk slightly, but it’s important to put this risk into perspective.
27 Ιουλ 2023 · Epidemiological studies on populations exposed to radiation, such as the survivors of the atomic bombings or radiotherapy patients, showed a significant increase of cancer risk at doses above 100 mSv.
1 Αυγ 2015 · Radiation exposure increases the risk of cancer throughout life, so continued follow-up of survivors is essential. Overall, survivors have a clear radiation-related excess risk of cancer, and people exposed as children have a higher risk of radiation-induced cancer than those exposed at older ages.
20 Μαρ 2020 · Although radiation may cause cancer at high doses and high dose rates, public health data do not absolutely establish the occurrence of cancer following exposure to low doses and dose rates — below about 10,000 mrem (100 mSv).
