Summary: | In this paper, the results of measurements of indoor radon activity
concentration in fourteen elementary schools in Tuzla, Bosnia and
Herzegovina, are presented. Measurements were performed with CR-39
solid-state nuclear track detectors. Radon activity concentration in
investigated locations was 6.8-143 Bqm-3. To assess the indoor radon hazards
for people, the annual effective dose, excess lifetime cancer risk, and the
relative risk of lung cancer were estimated. |
