Popis:	The charge radius of the deuteron (D), was recently determined to three times the precision compared with previous measurements using the measured Lamb shift in muonic deuterium (muD). However, the muD value is 5.6 $\sigma$ smaller than the world averaged CODATA-2014 value [1]. To shed light on this discrepancy we analyze the uncertainties of the nuclear structure calculations of the Lamb shift in muD and conclude that nuclear theory uncertainty is not likely to be the source of the discrepancy.
