exposure and cancer risk: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Intrauterine exposure: 8
All searches: 1674 Selected: 1493
Significant (p<0.05)
Medical ionizing radiation (MIR) has been shown to count for the mostimportant human-made ionizing radiation (IR) exposure of the general
population [UNSCEAR 2010].
Substantial increase in MIR use have been pointed out during the last50 years. Between 2000 – 2007, 3.6 billion MIR procedures were
performed in the world annually [UNSCEAR 2010, Mettler 2009].
About 20-fold incrementation in computed tomography (CT) use in USAand 12-fold in UK from 1980 to 2005 have been reported. In France, 74.5 million medical diagnostic examinations have been performed in
2007 and 81.8 million in 2012 [Hall E 2008, Etard C 2010, IRSN 2014].
Collective dose per inhabitant consecutively, raised from 0.53mSv to3mSv in USA where around 10% growth was observed in UK [Watson S
2005].
Moderate and high dose of IR exposure have been associated toincreased cancer risk but risk for low doses are still debated.
Fetus and children are more radio sensitive than adult, and their longlife expectancy can lead to the development of radiation-induced malignancies.

Systematic review has been performed according to PRISMA (Preferred ReportingItems for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis) guidelines [Liberati A 2009].
English epidemiological studies (cohort and case-control) published from 2000to 2018, were retrieved from online databases.
Included subjects have to be aged 22 years or less.
Exposure should take place in 1970’s onward.
Hight dose procedures (radiotherapy) and environmental exposures wereexcluded.
Random effect model was used to estimate pooled risk [DerSimonian and Laird 1986].
Statistical analysis were performed with STATA software.Figure 1 : Studies’ selection flow diagram

Material and methods
Figure 2 : Leukemia (A) and CNS tumors (B) risk after intrauterine x-ray exposure
Table 2 : Pooled ERRs of leukemia and CNS tumors risk related to postnatal CT scan exposure Table 1 : Cohort studies on postnatal MIR exposure and cancer risk
Common exposures: X-ray and computed tomography (CT).
Type of cancer assessed: hematologic cancers (leukemia andlymphoma) and central nervous system (CNS) tumors.
Intrauterine exposure
No significant cancers risk reported for fetal x-ray exposure by thestudies
(
Figure 2)
: Leukemia: pooled OR 1.08; 95% CI 0.87, 1.33
CNS tumors: pooled OR 0.93; 95% CI 0.68, 1.28
No observation of an increased cancer risk after fetal x-ray exposure, but childhood CT scan exposure is associated to slightly excess risk of leukemia and CNStumors.
Children and pregnant’s MIR exposure should be kept low by applying the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).
Further studies are ongoing to provide additional information on childhood MIR exposure and subsequent cancer risk.Postnatal exposure
Inconsistent results were found for postnatal CT scan exposure andcancer risk (Table 1).
Significant excess relative risk (ERR) was shown for leukemia and CTscan exposure
(
Table 1).
Slightly increased ERR was observed for CNS tumors and CT scanexposure.
