An expression of overall risk (i.e. including the radiation-induced risk) relative to the underlying baseline risk. If the total risk is twice the underlying baseline risk, the RR is 2.
=== from [[ICRP Publication 126]], 2014 ===
The ratio of the incidence rate or the mortality rate from the disease of interest (i.e. lung cancer) in an exposed population to that in an unexposed population.
=== from [[ICRP Publication 118]], 2012 ===
An expression of risk relative to the underlying baseline risk. If the total risk is twice the underlying baseline risk, the relative risk is 2.
