Abstract: Thyroid cancer incidence in exposed children is increased in the most contaminated areas during last 5.8 years (Buglova E.E. et al., 1996; Ivannov V.K. et al., 1997; Goulko G. et al., 1998; Jacob P. et al., 1998). These results generally confirm first predictions about expected thyroid cancer rate made for the selected areas of Ukraine in 1991 (Likhtarev I.A. et al., 1993). During the time passed after the Chernobyl accident a lot of efforts were made in Ukraine, Belarus and Russia to improve thyroid dose estimates due to 131I (Pitkevich V.A. et al., 1993; Zvonova I.A., Balonov M.I., 1993; Likhtarev I.A. et al., 1994. 1996; Tsyb A.F. et al., 1994; Gavrilin Y. et al., 1996; Goulko G.M. et al., 1996, 1998; Drozdovitch V.V. et al., 1997). Increased interest to this problem initiated several epidemiological studies considering different groups of people exposed in childhood due to the Chernobyl accident.
