ICRP PUBLICATION 118: ICRP Statement on Tissue Reactions and Early and Late Effects of Radiation in Normal Tissues and Organs — Threshold Doses for Tissue Reactions in a Radiation Protection Context

Fiona A. Stewart, А. V. Akleyev, Martin Hauer‐Jensen, J.H. Hendry et al.

Short summary

New estimates of 'practical' threshold doses for radiation-induced tissue injury (1% incidence) are provided, with particular attention to circulatory disease and cataracts, suggesting lower thresholds than previously considered, especially for long-term effects.
