Radon and the Cancers
Radon is a gas that you cannot smell, taste or see. Radon forms naturally when uranium, radium and thorium break down in rocks, soil and groundwater. People can be exposed to radon primarily from breathing radon in air that comes through cracks and gaps in buildings and homes.
Breathing in radon can cause health problems. Radon is estimated to be the second leading cause of lung cancer in the United States, responsible for over 20,000 lung cancer deaths each year, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.
Home Radon testing is highly critical for eliminating exposure risks. Too often we identify children spending much time in the most radioactive areas of the home .
The experts from Spectral subCLinical Sciences include surverys for a much broader Radtion inspection and testing for health risk purposes.
