Claimant Report - Exposure to Ionising Radiation from Alpha Particles [CR9264]
Preliminary questions [27903]
there is some evidence that ionising radiation may be a factor in the development of the condition under consideration.36218 the veteran has received ionising radiation from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at some time.
the veteran has received ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at some time.37920 — the veteran has established the causal connection between ionising radiation and VEA service for the clinical onset of malignant neoplasm of the bile duct.
37921 — the veteran has established the causal connection between ionising radiation and operational service for the clinical onset of malignant neoplasm of the bile duct.
or
37922 — the veteran has established the causal connection between ionising radiation and eligible service for the clinical onset of malignant neoplasm of the bile duct.
Clinical onset and operational service [37921]
on operational service, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.05 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles. on operational service, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.05 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at least two years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration. the veteran receiving a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.05 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at least two years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, on operational service, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
the veteran received ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles due to an illness or injury which is identifiable.37929 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.05 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles.
as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.05 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at least two years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.37933 — the identified illness or injury, as a consequence of which the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.05 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles, is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [37922]
on eligible service, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.5 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles. as a causal result of eligible service, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.5 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles. as a causal result of eligible service, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.5 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at least five years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration. the veteran receiving a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.5 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at least five years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, on eligible service, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
the veteran received ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles due to an illness or injury which is identifiable.37930 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.5 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles.
as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.5 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles at least five years before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.37934 — the identified illness or injury, as a consequence of which the veteran received a cumulative equivalent dose of at least 0.5 Sievert of ionising radiation to the site affected by malignant neoplasm of the bile duct from internal deposition of a substance which emits alpha particles, is causally related to eligible service.
