Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation exposure from CT scans in childhood and subsequent risk of leukaemia and brain tumours: a retrospective cohort study
Mark S. Pearce,J Salotti,Mark P. Little,Kieran McHugh,Choonsik Lee,Kwang Pyo Kim,Nicola Howe,Cécile M. Ronckers,Preetha Rajaraman,Alan W. Craft,Louise Parker,Amy Berrington de Gonzalez +11 more
TL;DR: Use of CT scans in children to deliver cumulative doses of about 50 mGy might almost triple the risk of leukaemia and doses ofabout 60 m Gy might triple therisk of brain cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation and breast cancer: a review of current evidence.
TL;DR: This paper summarizes current knowledge on ionizing radiation-associated breast cancer in the context of established breast cancer risk factors, the radiation dose–response relationship, and modifiers of dose response, taking into account epidemiological studies and animal experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary thyroid cancer after a first tumour in childhood (the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study): a nested case-control study
Alice J. Sigurdson,Cécile M. Ronckers,Ann C. Mertens,Marilyn Stovall,Susan A. Smith,Yan Liu,Roger L. Berkow,Sue Hammond,Joseph P. Neglia,Anna T. Meadows,Charles A. Sklar,Leslie L. Robison,Peter D. Inskip +12 more
TL;DR: The reduction in radiation dose-response for risk of thyroid cancer after childhood exposure to thyroid doses higher than 30 Gy is consistent with a cell-killing effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk of Second Primary Thyroid Cancer after Radiotherapy for a Childhood Cancer in a Large Cohort Study: An Update from the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study
Parveen Bhatti,Parveen Bhatti,Lene H.S. Veiga,Cécile M. Ronckers,Alice J. Sigurdson,Marilyn Stovall,Susan A. Smith,Rita E. Weathers,Wendy M. Leisenring,Ann C. Mertens,Sue Hammond,Debra L. Friedman,Joseph P. Neglia,Anna T. Meadows,Sarah S. Donaldson,Charles A. Sklar,Leslie L. Robison,Peter D. Inskip +17 more
TL;DR: Sex, age at exposure and time since exposure were found to be significant modifiers of the radiation-related risk of thyroid cancer and as such are important factors to account for in clinical follow-up and thyroid cancer risk estimation among childhood cancer survivors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk of Selected Subsequent Carcinomas in Survivors of Childhood Cancer: A Report From the Childhood Cancer Survivor Study
Mylène Bassal,Ann C. Mertens,Leslie Taylor,Joseph P. Neglia,Brian Greffe,Sue Hammond,Cécile M. Ronckers,Debra L. Friedman,Marilyn Stovall,Yutaka Yasui,Leslie L. Robison,Anna T. Meadows,Nina S. Kadan-Lottick +12 more
TL;DR: Young survivors of childhood cancers are at increased risk of developing subsequent carcinomas typical of later adulthood, underscoring the importance of long-term follow-up and risk-based screening.
