| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Molecular epidemiological study has been successfully implemented at the overseas’ joint research offices around Chernobyl, focusing on radiation-associated thyroid cancer, and various joint symposia and workshops were organized in Japan and abroad. The English monograph related to Chernobyl Thyroid Cancer was published jointly and many researchers from abroad were invited to Japan for training of radiation disaster medicine. Several new research findings about SNPs analysis of disease-susceptibility genes were reported using molecular epidemiological and pathological methods. These results have been applied how to interpret the data obtained from the thyroid ultrasound examination within the official framework of the Fukushima Health Management Survey, indicating the different characteristics of thyroid cancer between Chernobyl and Fukushima.
