Dissect of GBZ 97-2017 Judgment standard for occupational radiogenic neoplasms — the application of the probability of causation in occupational diseases judgment criteria in China

Probability of causation is used to assess occupational neoplasms induced by ionizing radiation. The current national standard and revised standards have undergone three versions. The current standard is based on the latest epidemiology survey data and their authoritative risk models and Chinese baseline cancer incidence data for standard preliminary localization. However, given the lack of relevant Chinese research data, the data used in the standards must be Sinicized. Relevant basic research must be strengthened to improve the adaptability and scientific nature of national standards to Chinese population.
