Abstract
It is shown that the optimal parameters for comparing the consequences of exposure of the population to different radiation sources are the expected frequency of radiation-induced cancer morbidity (radiation risk), as well as the loss of life expectancy. A methodology has been developed for a comprehensive assessment of both these parameters for the main sources of radiation impact on the population - radon and its daughter products, medical diagnostic X-ray procedures, consequences of radiation accidents in industry using any multiplicative and additive models of radiation risk extrapolation.
