I have a question..why there is a latency period of 10-15 years to radiation induced cancer. for all this long what will happen . whether the cell will be in dormant state or else its the radiation in the dormant state. please respond..
My guess is that it takes time for the cell with damaged DNA to replicate and then re-replicate again and again before a noticeable neoplasia is observed.
