Study highlights risky professions related to cancer
A comprehensive study has shown that professionals in the aviation industry, such as pilots and flight attendants, have recorded the highest rates of radiation-related deaths, particularly from breast cancer, central nervous system cancers, prostate cancer, and skin cancer. These workers are exposed to radiation doses ranging between 3 and 6 millisieverts annually, which is significantly higher than the safe limit of 0.4 millisieverts, due to their exposure to cosmic radiation during their flights. The researchers emphasized that these results highlight the urgent need to increase vigilance and medical monitoring for those working at high altitudes, in order to address the potentially elevated risk of cancer among pilots and airline crew.
