Abstract
(April 9, 2015) Background:
Radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer worldwide. Most indoor exposure
occurs by diffusion of soil gas. Radon is also found in well water, natural gas
and ambient air. Pennsylvania has high indoor radon concentrations; buildings
are often tested during real estate transactions with results reported to the
Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP).
Objectives: To
evaluate predictors of indoor radon concentrations
