Chronic health effect - Answer Problems that develop over a relatively long period of time, following either one significant exposure that initiates a problem, or following a series of small exposures which accumulate in some manner and result in a development of a disease or disorder acute toxicity - Answer Poisoning from a single dose over a much shorter duration of time How soon do health effects occur from accrue toxicity? - Answer Within 24 hours of exposure Chronic health...

HOW MUCH RADIATION IS DANGEROUS? Acute whole-body doses of radiation in the range of hundreds to thousands of millisieverts increase the long-term risk of cancer. Increases in leukemia have been observed beginning as soon as 2 years after exposure to doses above approximately 200 mSv, although some cases did not appear for 55 years.25 For tumors in solid organs, the latency period is in the range of 10 to 40 or more years. Reports from the ongoing epidemiological studies of the atomic ...
