• Estimated radiation risks potentially associated with full-body CT screening. (2004, background): “To put these doses in perspective, in the most recent report (9) on cancer incidence in survivors of the atomic bomb, individuals in the dose category from 5 to 100 mSv (mean, 29 mSv) show a statistically significant increase in solid cancer risk.”
• Lauriston S. Taylor lecture: Radiation Protection and Public Policy in an Uncertain World. (2011, background): “Moreover, this low-dose subset provides adequate statistical power to make direct inferences about doserelated cancer risk at low doses (Pierce and Preston 2000; Preston et al. 2007).”
• Cancer risks from diagnostic radiology. (2008, background): “Estimated relative risks for cancer incidence in Abomb survivors during the 195821994 follow-up period relative to controls [5].”
• The effects of modern war and military activities on biodiversity and the environment (2015, background): “1988) and risk level (Pierce and Preston 2000) of devel-”
• Radiation Dose Associated with Common Computed Tomography Examinations and the Associated Lifetime Attributable Risk of Cancer (2009, neutral): “For example, the mean (SD) effective dose for a suspected stroke CT was 8 (2) mSv at site 3 compared with 29 (8) mSv at site 4.”
• Studies of Mortality of Atomic Bomb Survivors. Report 13: Solid Cancer and Noncancer Disease Mortality: 1950–1997 (2003, background): “In a recent discussion of low-dose risks in the LSS, Pierce and Preston (5) emphasized analyses of cancer incidence data restricted to those within 3,000 m of the bombs.”
