Figures & data

Figure 1. Swedish advertisement for the use of radium. The text runs: ‘Apply radium. Radium is increasingly applied by medical science all over the world to treat, among others gout, sciatica, rheumatism, nerve pain, upset metabolism, kidney disease, anemia, senescence-associated weakness and much more. Seek advice with your medic! Radium drives away pain, facilitates metabolism, increases appetite, eases digestion, improves blood production, calms the nerves, removes the toxic uric acid from the body and prevents age-related weakness’. Source: Allers Familj Journal No. 10, 5 March 1924.

Figure 2. Indicative research directions to address issues on the shape of the dose response relationship and tissue sensitivities for cancer. Solid boxes indicate that experimental studies have to be combined with modelling studies. The dashed-line box implies that experimental and modelling studies should be carried out concurrently and the dotted-line box denotes epidemiological studies. Based on (HLEG Citation2009).
