Residential Radon: The Neglected Risk Factor in Lung Cancer Risk Scores.

María Torres-Duran1, Alberto Fernandez-Villar1, Juan Miguel Barros-Dios2, Alberto Ruano-Ravina3.   

Abstract

There are some published scores to estimate lung cancer risk of mortality or incidence. Nevertheless, no score has included residential radon as a variable to be considered when estimating lung cancer risk. In this commentary we discuss the importance of including residential radon as a factor to be taken into account when calculating lung cancer risk.
