Can anyone vouch for that journal "International Journal of Medical Sciences"?

It seems like there's a lot of imaginary radiation==cancer stuff going around, it's not clear to me if this study is a one-of or if it's generally accepted that there is a danger. I suspect it's the former

Why is that surprising? Grilling also produces carcinogens.
They cite quite a few other studies. The nutrition part about rats is really interesting, I had no idea radiation had such an effect on the nutritional content of food.
