Denied
The Board denied service connection for prostate cancer due to claimed in-service radiation exposure because the veteran did not participate in a radiation-risk activity and was not exposed to ionizing radiation during service.
The deciding factor: The persuasive weight of the evidence is against finding that the Veteran was exposed to ionizing radiation during service.
