Abstract: The current paper presents the methods and design of two case–control studies among Chernobyl liquidators—one of leukaemia and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, the other of thyroid cancer risk—carried out in Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Russia. The specific objective of these studies is to estimate the radiation induced risk of these diseases among liquidators of the Chernobyl accident, and, in particular, to study the effect of exposure protraction and radiation type on the risk of radiation induced cancer in the low-to-medium- (0–500 mSv) radiation dose range….
