   With respect to Radiation Protection , stochastic effects (also referred to as Probabilistic ) represent radiation harm for which there is no threshold (see Linear Dose Response ) . Even the smallest quantity of Ionising Radiation exposure can be said to have a finite probability of causing an effect, and this effect being either cancer in the individual or genetic damage. Dose Limits are set to ensure that these effects are minimised to broadly acceptable levels. Also see Deterministic Effect .

    Stochastic
    `Stochastic`, from the Greek `stochos` or `aim, guess`, means of, relating to, or characterized by conjecture and randomness. A stochastic process is one whose behavior is non-deterministic in that a state does not fully determine its next state. Classical examples of this are medicine: while a doctor can perfectly perform his or her craft, a patient may nevertheless still succumb to illness. This makes medicine a stochastic process..
