Using the data from the Tri-State Leukemia Survey and a mathematical model, the hypothesis that low levels of diagnostic radiation produce severe genetic damage that is expressed in the child of the exposed person as leukemia and other diseases is tested. It is estimated that for about 1% of the exposed persons who are affected by radiation, there is a 50-fold increase in the risk of leukemia and a five-fold increase in certain other diseases.
利用三州白血病调查的数据和一个数学模型，对低剂量诊断性辐射会产生严重基因损伤这一假设进行了检验，该损伤会在受辐射者的子女身上表现为白血病和其他疾病。据估计，在约1%受辐射影响的人群中，患白血病的风险增加50倍，患某些其他疾病的风险增加5倍。
