Radon, as a strongly radioactive gas, can be a cause of lung cancers. Also it is very widespread in the nature.

The concentration of radon must be determined in houses and other buildings, tunnels, mines, near uranium or thorium open pit mines, etc. and this concentration may be lowered by aeration or other procedures.

Measuring the concentration of radon can be important in geology, seismology and hydrology, vulcanology.

Today radon has only scientific uses.
