Abstract As part of the human environment, ionizing radiation can produce adverse tissue reactions known as deterministic effects at sufficiently high exposure levels, and cause stochastic effects (cancer and genetic diseases), where single cells with mutations can trigger somatic or genetic effects, even at low exposure levels. Given the unfavorable health effects of radiation, a comprehensive technical report is warranted to address the measurement and control of radiation exposure levels. The Assessment of Prospective Cancer Risks from Occupational Exposure to Ionizing Radiation published by the International Atomic Energy Agency fills this gap. This paper outlines the methodology of prospective cancer risk assessment for workers occupationally exposed to radiation, which provides a flexible framework based on radiobiology, risk modeling, and epidemiological data and a new tool for managing occupational radiation exposure and assessing potential risks from occupational radiation exposure.
