Implications of recent epidemiologic studies for the linear nonthreshold model and radiation protection

open access: yesJournal of Radiological Protection, 2018
The recently published NCRP Commentary No. 27 evaluated the new information from epidemiologic studies as to their degree of support for applying the linear nonthreshold (LNT) model of carcinogenic effects for radiation protection purposes (NCRP 2018 ...

Ethics and radiation protection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Radiological Protection, 2007
Some of the major problems in radiation protection are closely connected to issues that have a long, independent tradition in moral philosophy. This contribution focuses on two of these issues. One is the relationship between the protection of individuals and optimisation on the collective level, and the other is the relative valuation of future versus
