| Abstract:: |
| In March 2011, a nuclear accident happened and released a large amount of radionuclides into the environment in Fukushima, Japan. This review introduced the latest findings on the relationship between childhood thyroid cancer and radiation exposure after the accident in Fukushima. Many reports suggested that there was no accurate correlation between the incidence of childhood thyroid cancer and the local external dose due to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power, while the relationship between the two varied with method of dose calculation and statistics. Also there was no clear evidence that radiation exposure had a negative impact on children's thyroid, and the increased incidence of thyroid cancer may be due to over-screening. |
