Abstract
The review examines such reports as are available in which there is reasonable evidence that human cancer has been caused by ionizing radiation. The reported incidence of cancer of each type is correlated with such factors as seem pertinent and for which data have been recorded. Many factors are interrelated and can not be considered separately, but major emphasis is given to radiation quantity. This includes both a consideration of the dose/response relation where there is good evidence that cancer has been caused by radiation and a consideration of situations where the evidence for carcinogenesis by very small radiation doses is doubtful.
