Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for additional development, including verifying the Veteran's claimed exposure to ionizing radiation and providing a new medical opinion.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to pre-decisional duty to assist errors related to obtaining a dose estimate from the Under Secretary for Health and developing information on the Veteran's claimed exposure to non-ionizing radiation, as well as an inadequate nexus opinion.
