No. CRTs had a small amount of radiation because of electrons striking the screen. LCDs are a totally different technology.

What do you mean by 'radiation'?
The electromagnetic spectrum covers a lot of ground.
It is AC powered, so it has some ELF and ELMF fields, although these are very small and less than you would get from a light bulb.
It produces radio interference in the 30 to 2 GHz band that the FCC worries about, but less than a CRT and is probably better than most electronics.
Not much in the way of microwaves. the next significant band will be the infra red - ie heat.
Not surprisingly it produces radiation in the visible spectrum, and then tails of to background production of ultraviolet and the higher frequencies.

Yes, since an LCD screen emits light and heat.

LCD screens do have mercury in them, that's the most risk involved with LCD screens.

No more than a incandescent light bulb
