Abstract: The following topics are discussed: recommendations of the
International Commission on Radiological Protection; methods for
determining dose limits to workers; use of data from survivors of
Hiroshima and Nagasaki for estimating risk factors; use of data from
survivors of nuclear explosions
in Marshall
Islands,
uranium miners,
and patients exposed to diagnostic and therapeutic radiation; risk
factors for radioinduced malignancies; evidence that risk factors for
persons exposed to-partial-body radiation and Japanese survivors are
too low; greater resistance of A-bomb survivors to radiation; and
radiation doses received by U.K. medical workers and by U.K. fuel
reprocessing workers. It is suggested that the dose limit for radiation
workers should be reduced by a factor of 5. (HLW);
