N (4-3) In applying Eq. 19. 4 million person-rad-years with an estimated spontaneous rate of clinically detectable thyroid cancer of about 3. 69 cases per million person per rad per year for children and adults respectively. 05. In fact, no excess cancers were determined to be present. The calculation in the case of children is less certain due to the small numbers and lack of precise information regarding their actual spontaneous rate of thyroid cancer as they reach adult life. Thus, in summary, I3'I appears less carcinogenic in people on a radfor-rad basis than external radiation.
However, adequate information often does not exist for such calculations. 7). 2), then the resultant proportional incidence is identical to that which would be predicted for a non-Jewish, Caucasian population comprised equally of both sexes (72 percent of projected ineidence for non-Jewish, white women). 1 would appear to be applicable to a non-Jewish, Caucasian population comprised equally of both sexes and might overestimate the risk in black Americans while underestimating the risk in Jewish Americans.
