As certified by the World Health Organization (WHO), exposure assessment represents a key stage in epidemiological studies that aim to evaluate health risks linked to contaminated sites. The assessment procedure is contingent on the availability of data relating to environmental and food compartments and on any other available scientific evidence, such as data on toxicity and human biomonitoring. This chapter outlines the procedure that should be adopted in order to conduct an accurate exposure assessment and presents three case studies involving different types of contaminated sites where this approach was applied.
经世界卫生组织（WHO）认证，暴露评估是旨在评估与污染场地相关健康风险的流行病学研究中的关键阶段。评估程序取决于与环境和食品隔室相关的数据以及任何其他可用的科学证据，如毒性数据和人体生物监测数据。本章概述了为进行准确的暴露评估应采用的程序，并介绍了三个涉及不同类型污染场地的案例研究，这些场地都应用了这种方法。
