Pilots and Flight Attendants Have Highest Radiation-Related Cancer Mortality

Original: Pilots and Flight Attendants Have the Highest Radiation-Related Cancer Mortality

A study published in JAMA finds that pilots and flight attendants show the highest radiation-related cancer mortality, consistent with their occupational exposure to cosmic ionizing radiation at cruising altitudes. The finding is drawing attention to health risks in aviation work and questions about monitoring and protection for cabin crews.

Why now: A newly published JAMA study on occupational radiation exposure among aircrew has drawn widespread attention.
