radon exposure (222Rn) indoors in Sweden: (a) inhalation of radon and its progeny and (b) intake of radon-rich water. Both of these phenomena are regulated in Sweden. The reasons for selecting them are: • that inhalation of radon gives high exposures compared with most other radiation sources • that both inhalation and ingestion of radon are examples of how to regulate natural radiation sources • that the exposure to radon from intake of water might correlate with residential radon exposure from the ground • that both phenomena are examples of risk communication that are different from many other situations In addition, it has been possible to estimate the risk directly from epidemiological studies for inhalation of radon and these risk est...
