Given this situation, an independent group of reputable scientists,
medical experts and health researchers should be established
to conduct an open scientifi c review of all data and analyses
on the subject of LNTH. Based on the conclusions of this review
group, a separate group composed of stakeholders should make
recommendations on whether adjustments to current radiation
protection guidelines should be made immediately to refl ect current
information.
In addition, it is the ANS position that new research on low-level
radiation health effects, spanning several disciplines, should
be initiated. Meritorious existing research within the disciplines
should continue to receive funding.
