There is also a tiny risk that radiation from the screening might itself cause cancer.

For example, scientists recognized as early at 1910 that radiation caused skin cancer.

We'll look at how this radiation causes its deadly effects in the next section.

The study would determine whether radiation has caused cancers or other health problems.

However, with the oven door open, the radiation may cause damage by heating.

There are a couple of ideas as to how radiation can cause mammatus to form.

Radiation can cause serious long-term health problems, including secondary cancers, but this isn't common.

It is not known how non-ionizing radiation might cause tumors.

But no known radiation, or infectious agent, can cause these effects.

There is a small chance that the radiation in the test could cause a new cancer in a healthy person.
