New additions since 1968 to the literature on radiation carcinogenesis in man support the
earlier conclusion of an approximately linear increase in cancer incidence in a broad …

The late effects or irradiation stem from cell killing, mutation, and malignant transformation.
Cancer is the major somatic late effect of exposure to low dose levels of radiation, and …

Although ionizing radiation can apparently induce neoplasms of virtually all types, the

The distinctive feature of the atomic bomb is the large amount of radiant energy that it
produces. While this energy covers a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum, its chief …

An important consideration in any discussion on mechanisms of radiation carcinogenesis is
whether the increased incidence of cancer following irradiation is related to the cancer …
