Estimated loss of life expectancy from health risks



Gary Wilson recently posted a request for another individual asking 
about comparative risks. I provided a link to my listing of 
comparative dose data for various applications, background, etc. In 
the meantime, I've received a copy of NCRP 133, Radiation Protection 
For Procedures Outside The Radiology Department, Issued August 31, 
2000, which includes Table A.5 - Estimated loss of life expectancy 
from health risks, which does provide information on comparative 
risks.
