UNSCEAR focuses on several key areas that are relevant to both radiation science and toxicology:
Radiation Dose Assessment: UNSCEAR evaluates the sources, levels, and doses of radiation that populations are exposed to, which is essential for determining the potential toxic effects. Biological Effects of Radiation: Detailed studies on how radiation interacts with biological tissues help in understanding its toxicological impact. Risk Assessment: UNSCEAR assesses the risks of radiation exposure to human health, which aids in formulating safety standards and guidelines. Environmental Impact: The committee evaluates the effects of radiation on the environment, contributing to ecological toxicology.
