Ionizing Radiation: Part II: Some Internally Deposited Radionuclides

by IARC, The International Agency for Research on, The International Agency for Research on Cancer

This monograph evaluates the evidence for carcinogenicity of ionizing radiation from internally deposited radionuclides. The radionuclides considered in this monograph belong to two broad categories: those that emit a-particles (helium nuclei) and those that emit b-particles (electrons) during their primary radioactive decay.

For purposes of this monograph 'internally deposited' refers to radionuclides in dispersed forms (e.g. dusts suspensions...
