Radon Exposure—Therapeutic Effect and Cancer Risk

Radon Exposure—Therapeutic Effect and Cancer Risk

Largely unnoticed, all life on earth is constantly exposed to low levels of ionizing radiation. Radon, an imperceptible natural occurring radioactive noble gas, contributes as the largest single fraction to radiation exposure from natural sources. For that reason, radon represents a major issue for...
