For Estimating Probability
of Cancer Causation for Exposures to Radiation
NIOSH-IREP was created for use by the Department of Labor for adjudication of
claims in accordance with the Energy Employees' Occupational Illness Compensation Program
Act of 2000 (EEOICPA). NIOSH-IREP was adapted from the National Institutes of Health's
(NIH) Interactive RadioEpidemiological Program (IREP) developed by the National Cancer
Institute (NCI) to update the NIH Radioepidemiological Tables of 1985. (The version of
IREP developed by NCI is known as NIH-IREP.)

and to other recent versions. Comments and suggestions should be communicated directly to
NIOSH.
