Indoor radon and its decay products are the primary sources of the population’s exposure to background ionizing radiation. Radon decay products are one of the leading causes of lung cancer, with a higher lung cancer risk for smokers due to the synergistic effects of radon decay products and cigarette smoking. Radon measurements in the Republic of Srpska have been conducted over the past 15 years. The results indicate significantly elevated concentrations in some cities of Srpska, which necessitates consideration of the doses received by the population from natural radiation sources. This paper presents the results of radon measurements in seven cities of Srpska, calculates the average doses, and compares them with effective dose results measured globally which amounts to 1.3 mSv due to inhalation of radon in indoor environments. Cost-efficient mitigation methods exist to reduce radon in existing buildings, and to prevent radon entry into new buildings.
