title: [Radiation exposure and radiation risk in our environment].
abstract: The extent of radiation exposure of the population of central Europe will be described by natural sources, by medical application and exposure by nuclear power facilities with special emphasis of the accident in Chernobyl. It will be shown, how the assessment of the various exposures can be standardized. Especially the risk for cancer and genetic diseases should be taken into account. The consequences for optimal radiation protection will be discussed.
