Shortly after revision of the Canadian radon guideline from 800 to 200 Bq m⁻³, Health Canada established the Federal Building Testing Program in 2007 to demonstrate federal leadership in raising awareness about radon risk and the need for testing.

The recently developed radon film-badge makes it possible to measure radon indoors, in soil, in water and/or in aqueous media (e.g. mud). As a result of its wide response linearity, this monitor has been successfully used to measure radon in-water wi

Radon has been identified as the second leading cause of lung cancer after tobacco smoking. (222)Rn (radon gas) and (220)Rn (thoron gas) are the most common isotopes of radon. In order to assess thoron contribution to indoor radon and thoron exposure

Ottawa is the capital city of Canada. In the previous cross Canada radon survey, Ottawa was not included. There is great interest to know radon level as well as thoron concentration in Ottawa homes. Therefore, radon/thoron discrimination detectors de
