Definition of a disability weight for human exposure to ionizing radiation and its application to the justification of medical exposure

The definition of a DW for ionizing radiation, proportional to effective dose as currently defined, can link radiation exposure to the existing large body of data on the DALY burden and DWs for a wide range of diseases and injuries, providing a means for the quantitative justification of the benefit-detriment balance of medical exposures.

Abstract

The definition of a DW for ionizing radiation, proportional to effective dose as currently defined, can link radiation exposure to the existing large body of data on the DALY burden and DWs for a wide range of diseases and injuries, providing a means for the quantitative justification of the benefit-detriment balance of medical exposures.
