Radiation risk factors in incidence and mortality among exposed individuals of East Kazakhstan.

Introduction: Lengthy clinical and epidemiological studies at the Research Institute of Radiation Medicine and Ecology have discovered basic patterns of long-term effects from ionizing radiation in population groups exposed to radiation risk. Methodology for calculating injury from radiation risk factors has been developed and implemented to minimize the effects of the Semipalatinsk nuclear test site (SNTS).

Material And Methods: We analyzed materials from the database of the Scientific Medical Register that were exposed to radiation as a result of SNTS.
