What was it ... 170mSv cumulative external exposure to potentially cause cataracts in the lens?<br /><br />http://www.icrp.org/docs/Miroslav%20Pinak%20Dose%20Limits%20to%20the%20Lens%20of%20the%20Eyes%20New%20Limit%20for%20the%20Lens%20of%20the%20Eye%20-%20International%20Basic%20Safety%20Standards%20and%20Related%20Guidance.pdf<br /><br />Quote: &quot;For many years radiation-induced cataracts were considered unlikely by most radiologists. Recent data suggest that the likelihood is much higher than previously thought, and the International Commission on Radiological Protection has suggested lower exposure limits.&quot; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25247963<br /><br />Nobody wants pilots literally flying blind.<br /> Perhaps they should collect dosimetry data, for shits and giggles.<br /><br />At least that way if a massive burst hits and flight crews are alerted, they may be able to reduce altitude as needed (if necessary).<br /><br /><br />If i am wrong in any way, constructive criticism is welcome, by the bye.Dudnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7390168029330307425.post-63220474365615724302016-01-06T07:05:30.044-08:002016-01-06T07:05:30.044-08:00What would you think would happen to air travel if flight crews were required to openly display dosimetry? <br /><br />Its all about balancing risk and benefit.<br /><br />That increase in cancer rate since 1900?
