Genomic insights into somatic mutations from occupational exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation Objective Low-dose ionizing radiation (LDIR, ≤100 mGy) is a public health concern due to its extensive use in diagnostic and therapeutic imaging. This study examined somatic variants (SV) among Korean industrial radiographers exposed to LDIR using whole-genome sequencing (WGS). Methods WGS data from 65 workers (mean age 36.7 years) collected between 2016 and 2023 were analyzed.
