Abstract:High-dose radiation has been widely recognized as a risk factor for circulatory diseases. There is increasing evidence for risk of circulatory diseases in response to low and moderate radiation doses in recent years, but the results are not always consistent. We aimed to evaluate the associations between low-dose radiation exposure (<0.1 Gy) and the incidence of circulatory disease in a large cohort of Korean radiation workers. We collected data from a cohort of 187,001 radiation workers monitored for p… Show more
