Studies from University of Kashmir Reveal New Findings on Cancer (Gamma Dose Monitoring To Assess the Excess Lifetime Cancer Risk In Western Himalaya)

摘要

2021 MAY 05 (NewsRx) - By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Disease Prevention Daily - Current study results on Cancer have been published. According to news originating from Srinagar, India, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "The present work focussed on demarcation of areas with cancer development risk through excess lifetime cancer risk (ELCR) by assessing spatial variability of gamma dose in outdoor and indoor environment in western Himalaya." Financial support for this research came from Board of Research in Nuclear Sciences (BRNS). Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the University of Kashmir, "Average outdoor gamma dose and outdoor annual effective dose exceed the corresponding world averages. An indoor gamma dose (barring Budgam, Ganderbal and Kashmir University of Kashmir division and Reasi city of Jammu division) also exceed the world average."
