Abstract: Check yourself: Have you got thyroid cancer? If you lived in Tuly, Bryansk, Orlov or Kaluzh regions in 1986, being aged 20 or less, you should take ultrasound interview. Radionuclide iodine’s outspread after the Chernobyl accident may have influenced you by entering your body through water, air or food, producing node in your thyroid gland.

Abstract: …Indeed, the uncertainty surrounding the health effects has contributed to increase the alarm in the affected communities as well as the sense of hopelessness towards a threat to health that was perceived as uncontrollable, threatening present and future generations. In many cases, Chernobyl has become the “explanation” for several problems, indeed attributable to broad public health causes and aggravated by the difficult political, economic and social transition the affected countries have experienced in recent years…. In summary, in the most severely affected countries, about 6000 people who were children and adolescents in April 1986 have been diagnosed with thyroid cancer so far. New thyroid cancer cases are expected in the coming decades among those exposed in 1986, although the magnitude of the risks and the number of future cases are difficult to quantify….

Abstract: Thyroid cancer:A large increase in the incidence of thyroid cancer has occurred among people who were young children and adolescents at the time of the accident and lived in the most contaminated areas of Belarus, the Russian Federation and Ukraine. This was due to the high levels of radioactive iodine released from the Chernobyl reactor in the early days after the accident. Radioactive iodine was deposited in pastures eaten by cows who then concentrated it in their milk which was subsequently drunk by children. This was further exacerbated by a general iodine deficiency in the local diet causing more of the radioactive iodine to be accumulated in the thyroid. Since radioactive iodine is short lived, if people had stopped giving locally supplied contaminated milk to children for a few months following the accident, it is likely that most of the increase in radiation-induced thyroid cancer would not have resulted.In Belarus, the Russian Federation and Ukraine nearly 5 000 cases of thyroid cancer have now been diagnosed to date among children who were aged up to 18 years at the time of the accident. …

Reference: National Radioation-Epidemiological Registry, Russia
Abstract: “The survey maps of individuals exposed to radiation as a result of the Chernobyl disaster” is meant for people registered in the “National Radioation-Epidemiological Registry” or those living in the contaminated regions of Bryansk, Kaluzh, Orlov and Tuly (contamination degree: 137Cs : over 5 Ci/km2), with diagnosed cancer or other malignancies detected after 26 April, 1986. The “Card” is meant for evaluation, verification, correction and addition (if needed) of data on absorbed doses into the thyroid gland and the whole body due to external and internal exposures.
