Abstrakt: In Japan, a national project of longitudinal health care and epidemiological research (NEWS) was developed in 2014 to analyse the effects of radiation on human health for workers who responded to the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear emergency in 2011. In 2018, peripheral blood for chromosome translocation analysis was collected from 62 workers. Retrospective dose assessment was performed with fluorescence in situ hybridisation translocation (FISH-Tr) assay. The range of estimated doses by FISH-Tr assay was 0-635 mGy, in which 22 workers had estimated doses of more than 189 mGy. Biological dose estimates were five times higher in workers with physically measured total exposure recordings above 70 mGy. It is likely that smoking and medical exposure caused the discrepancy between estimated biological and physical total exposure doses. Thus, there is a possibility that retrospective biodosimetry assessment might over-estimate occupational exposures to workers exposed to chronic radiation during nuclear emergency work.
