[The mutagenic effect of x-rays iii. radiation genetic risks].

In the estimation of radiation genetic risks, the results must be derived from animal experiments. According to recently performed investigations, humans have almost the same mutation sensibility like mice. In risk estimations, it is necessary to take into account the factors which influence the mutation rate induced per unit dose. Risk estimations are carried out by comparing the effect per unit dose with the risk of the same effect, which is caused by unknown natural influences. The reader is reffered to data derived from humans.
