International Journal of Low Radiation

Aims & Scope

IJLR is dedicated to the publication of research articles, review papers and technical notes in all domains related to low-dose and very low-dose radiation, among which are the biological and health effects in humans and the biota, in vitro and in vivo research on low radiation effects, regulatory and policy aspects, risk estimation and public perception.

Topics covered include: -Radiation risks in perspective- Radio-induced cancer among cancer risks- Epidemiological data- Effect of radiation on radiation workers- Medical cohorts- Models and controversies in radiation carcinogenesis- Effects of radiation on mammalian cells, stress responses in cells and tissues- Variations in natural background irradiation throughout the world- Review of radiation exposure limits worldwide- Radiation protection- Hormesis- Genomic instability- Bystander effects- Changing paradigms and radiation protection- Impact of low dose/dose rates on DNA repair/disrepair
