Health effects of a thorium waste disposal site.

G R Najem and L K Voyce

Department of Preventive Medicine and Community Health, UMDNJ-New Jersey Medical School, Newark 07103-2757.

The numbers were quite small and the confidence intervals wide, however, so that no definite conclusions can be drawn from these data.
