TL;DR: The computer program, National Cancer Institute dosimetry system for CT (NCICT), provides more realistic anatomy based on the ICRP reference phantoms, higher age resolution, the most up-to-date bone marrow Dosimetry, and several convenient features compared to previous tools.

TL;DR: These findings represent the first reported dose response for a radiation epidemiologic study considering all known sources of shared and unshared errors in dose estimation and using a Bayesian model averaging (BMA) method for analysis of the dose response.

TL;DR: The quantity and quality of meteorological data are the most important factors for accurate fallout predictions and that, when satisfactory meteorological input data are used, HYSPLIT can produce relatively accurate deposition patterns and fallout arrival times.

TL;DR: The analysis suggested that only 20 of the 66 nuclear tests conducted in or near the Marshall Islands resulted in substantial fallout deposition on any of the 23 inhabited atolls, and the sum of the estimates of 137Cs deposition from these 20 tests is in good agreement with the total 137Cs deposited as estimated from contemporary soil sample analyses.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed models of lymphatic nodes for six pediatric and two adult hybrid computational phantoms to calculate the lymphatic node dose estimates from external and internal radiation exposures.
