This book reevaluates the health risks of ionizing radiation in light of data that have become available since the 1980 report on this subject was published. The data include new, much more reliable dose estimates for the A-bomb survivors, the results of an additional 14 years of follow-up of the survivors for cancer mortality, recent results of follow-up studies of persons irradiated for medical purposes, and results of relevant experiments with laboratory animals and cultured cells. It analyzes the data in terms of risk estimates for specific organs in relation to dose and time after exposure, and compares radiation effects between Japanese and Western populations.

Cover has some wear and soiling and front corner creased. The Committee was asked to conduct a comprehensive review of the biological effects of ionizing radiation focusing on information that had been reported since the conclusion of the BEIR III study, and to the extent that available information permitted, provide new estimates of the risks of genetic and somatic effects in humans due to low-level exposures of ionizing radiation. These risk estimates were to address both internal and external sources of radiation, and the procedures by which these risk estimates were derived was to be documented. The Committee on the Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) is a committee of the American National Research Council. It publishes reports on the effects of ionizing radiation. This book reevaluates the health risks of ionizing radiation in light of data that have become available since the 1980 report on this subject was published. The data include new, much more reliable dose estimates for the A-bomb survivors, the results of an additional 14 years of follow-up of the survivors for cancer mortality, recent results of follow-up studies of persons irradiated for medical purposes, and results of relevant experiments with laboratory animals and cultured cells.
