Outline of Final Research Achievements

It is well known that thyroid cancer was dramatically increased in residents who were children at the accident at Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station due to the internal radiation exposure by radioiodine, But there is no scientific evidence on the increase of other diseases than thyroid cancer. After the accident at Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Station in 2011, residents had anxieties about their heath effects due to the internal radiation exposure by raioiodine and radiocesium, in spite that food refulation was conducted in the initial phase of the accident to minimize the internal exposure. In the future it is expected that residents of Fukushima may have the anxieties about the benign thyroid diseases, as well as thyroid cancers. In this study, we conducted the epdemiological studies about thyroid benign diseases around Chernobyl.
