Objective
The aim of the present project is to build on the previous experience and collaborative efforts by expanding the cause of death registers in three radioactively contaminated regions in Russia. The objectives are to extend the follow-up in time, thus rendering the registers complete and up to date. At the same time the registers will continue to gather information on exposure to ionising radiation on an individual level. Each individual exposed to ionising radiation as a consequence of the discharge of radioactive waste from the Mayak nuclear facility or the nuclear tests in Semipalatinsk will be flagged in the registers, thus providing a larger potential for comparative analysis. A third aim is to provide unique comparison cohorts and background mortality rates for future studies of the exposed populations in these areas.
