Description

A brief article reviews the published information on low dose radiation carcinogenesis. The studies range from A-bomb survivors, radiation workers, children of radiation workers and children subjected to medical X-ray doses. It is argued that the data are probably only reconcilable if the contention is that foetal tissue has a higher susceptibility to radiation. (UK)
