Major radiation epidemiology conclusions
Dose-response relationship (up to 2 Gy)
Young age at exposure is a risk factor (0-5 y.o.)
Latency may be short (4-5 years)
Iodine deficiency increases risk (~3-fold at 1 Gy)
No significant risk for childhood thyroid cancer for radiation doses below 100 mSv
No increase in cancer incidence in the population with accumulated doses <100 mSv during 25 years
No increase in cancer incidence in emergency workers with doses <150 mSv

Major pathological conclusions
Time-related trendsPrevalence of less differentiated structures (solid component) decreases
Pathological aggressiveness (extrathyroidal extension, vascular invasion and nodal disease) declines
Proportion of encapsulated and small tumors increases
Age-related trendPathologically, the aggressiveness declines in the rowchildren > adolescents > adults
Radiation-induced PTC may be pathologically more aggressive than sporadic PTC in age-matched groups

Effects of tumor capsule, nodal disease and treatment adequacy
Risk factors 0 1 2 3
Major clinical conclusions
Disease-specific 15-20 years mortality is low (~1%)
Chance of recurrence is comparable to that in sporadic thyroid cancer
No etiology-specific risk factors for recurrence
Radiation-induced thyroid cancer is suggested to be treated and followed in the same way as sporadic thyroid cancer

• 30% PTCs display CNV• RET/PTC-positive and –negative cases could be distinguished• Besides carcinogenesis-related changes, CNV also depends on radiation exposure• Prevalence of DNA gains is 2-4 times higher in Chernobyl PTCs• Recurrent gains are ~10 times more frequent in Chernobyl PTCs

Mutational studies: NONE of the oncogenes or tumor suppressors implicated in of PTC has proved a distinctive molecular signature of radiation-induced thyroid cancer
Gene expression and DNA copy alteration analyses are suggestive that molecular classifiers of radiation-induced PTC may exist
Validation in the larger independent series (matched for ethnicity/ age/ sex) of radiation-induced and sporadic cancers is urgently needed to understand if the establishment of a reliable radiation signature is achievable
Are there molecular signaturesof radiation-induced PTC?
Molecular epidemiology studies
Molecular epidemiology is an approach to the identification of genetic factors that influence health and disease
Studies are conducted using advanced technologies to rapidly and cost-effectively analyze genetic differences between people with specific illnesses compared to healthy individuals
The purpose is to explore the connection between specific genes, i.e. genotype, and phenotype, to facilitate the determinationof genetic risk factors for the development of disease

• Morphological aggressiveness declines with time and in the row children > adolescents > adults
• May be morphologically more aggressive than sporadic
• Is recommended to be treated and followed in the same way as sporadic thyroid cancers
