Background: Underground miners exposed to high levels of radon have an excess risk of lung
cancer. Residential exposure to radon is at much lower levels, and the risk of lung cancer …

Cohort studies have consistently shown underground miners exposed to high levels of radon
to be at excess risk of lung cancer, and extrapolations based on those results indicate that …

A cohort study was conducted to investigate the relation between cancer incidence and
occupational exposure to ionizing radiation. Records containing dose information from 1951 to …

… Comparison of response rates between the various studies is problematic because of the
differences between subject selection criteria (eg randomized recruitment) for cases and …

A case-control study of lung cancer in relation to exposure to radon in homes in Winnipeg,
Manitoba, Canada, was conducted during 1983–1990. In total, 738 individuals with …

Background: Medical workers can be exposed to low-dose ionizing radiation from various
sources. The potential cancer risks associated with ionizing radiation exposure have been …

A recent analysis showed that the excess odds ratio (EOR) for lung cancer due to smoking
can be modeled by a function which is linear in total pack-years and exponential in the …

Measurements of radon and radon daughters were carried out in 14 Canadian cities on a
total of 9999 homes selected in a statistically random manner. The geometric means of the …

The objective of this study was to assess the lung cancer risk resulting from indoor radon
exposure in the province of Quebec, Canada, and to evaluate the efficacy of mitigation …

Objective: To describe doses of ionizing radiation and their possible associations with
mortality rates and cancer incidence among Canadian dental workers. Methods: The National …
