The genesis of carcinogenic diseases is characterized by a multifactor dependence. The effect of low dose radiation in combination with environmental factors has a significant number of features. It was studied the influence of certain features of the environment and the mental state of the person (affect) on the development of the incidence of carcinogenic diseases of the population in Ukraine. Given the various adverse environmental conditions, the effect of radiation in low doses can be enhanced or weakened. Synergism and antagonism of the effect of low dose radiation and environment on the health of the population are discussed.
