Utah study of lung cancer and radon in LDS (Mormon) women

[Jim, Otton]

Radsafers,

A while ago I was contacted by a University of Utah researcher who was

trying to reconstruct the radon levels for residences of women in a

case-control study of lung cancer in Utah.  LDS (Mormon) women were

considered good subjects because of the lack of smoking generally among that

population, relatively long term residence in the same house, and other

factors. (I may have some details wrong)

Is this study still underway?

Have any results been forthcoming?
