What Role Does Epidemiology Play in Addressing Radon Exposure?
Epidemiologists play a crucial role in identifying and quantifying the health risks associated with radon exposure. They conduct population-based studies to assess the prevalence of radon-related lung cancer and evaluate the effectiveness of mitigation strategies. By understanding the distribution and determinants of radon exposure, epidemiologists can inform public health policies and interventions to reduce the burden of lung cancer.
