Radiobiological consequences evaluation following a hypothetical nuclear event based on the radionuclide-to-inventory release ratio

Even minor fluctuations in TEDE caused by local atmospheric stability can significantly affect the estimated risks of thyroid cancer and leukemia. This may alter the logistical resources required and the epidemiological methods used to identify and prioritize concerns. Implementing environmental monitoring and strategies such as distributing stable iodine and enforcing dietary restrictions during the initial phases of nuclear emergencies may be guided by risk assessments based on simulations.
