Description
The project presents 3 main objectives: to establish baseline data on iodine dietary supply, and radioiodine uptake in Europe, in order to allow evaluation of the consequences of radioiodine contamination; to determine the appropriateness of absorbed dose as an index for use in cancer risk estimation in mass with evaluation of fetal thyroid dose after radioiodine ingestion; and to develop new models for the study of radiobiology and radiation carcinogenesis of the thyroid. The results of the three contributions of the project for the reporting period are presented. (R.P.) 30 refs., 3 figs
