Scope

Mortality due to indoor radon concentrations.

  • Spatial: Europe
  • Temporal: years 2010-2050

Definition

  • Lung cancer cases calculated from radon concentration using <math>cases = relative risk * background rate of cases * concentration * population</math>. RR taken from HEIMTSA and INTARESE (Darby 2004; Darby 2005).
    • Background rate of new lung cancers is assumed constant for the whole Europe: 58.2 cases per 100,000 population (Globocan 2008, crude rate).
    • Linear no threshold model assumed.
    • In a given iteration, radon concentrations are assumed equal in all residences in a country.

Data

Unit

cases per year

Formula

+ Show code

An alternative code for Finland

This code uses the summary table approach for obtaining data. The data sources are the same except ERF for long-term indoor exposure to radon and lung cancer (summary table Category:Exposure-response functions) and Exposure to indoor radon in Finland (summary table Category:Exposures).

Which exposure parameters do you want to see?:
Actual population average in Finland
Guidance value for new apartments
Guidance value for old apartments
