Estimate of thyroid doses for David A. Timothy and June Carrell from Nevada Test Site local fallout

1985 
David A. Timothy and June Rogers Carrell are litigants in Timothy vs US. They allege that their thyroid cancers have resulted from harm from radiation doses received as a result of local fallout from the testing of nuclear weapons at the Nevada Test Site. We have calculated a best estimate of the thyroid dose received by each litigant from external exposure and the ingestion of radionuclides with food. For David Timothy, the dose estimate is 7.8 rads. For June Carrell, it is 2.6 rads. 22 refs., 3 tabs.
