External Dose Estimation for Nuclear Worker Studies

Radiation Research, 2006
Epidemiological studies of nuclear workers are an important source of direct information on the health effects of exposure to radiation at low doses and low dose rates. These studies have the important advantage of doses that have been measured objectively through the use of personal dosimeters.

DECAY DATA FOR INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL DOSE ASSESSMENT

Health Physics, 2002
Decay data for use in internal and external dose assessment are presented. Decay data for more than 800 radionuclides were taken from the Brookhaven National Laboratory database and formatted for use in internal or external dose assessment (giving nuclide half-life, decay types, energies, and abundances).

Shielding Factors and External Dose Evaluation

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 1987
The kerma in typical European houses in urban and suburban environments due to the gamma radiation from the contamination of different deposition areas such as lawns, trees, windows, walls, roofs, paved areas, light-shafts and internal surfaces has been calculated by extensive Monte Carlo simulations.

The relationship between internal and external dose: Some general results based on a generic compartmental model.

Toxicological Sciences, 2020
Statements on how the IED (internal-to-external-dose) relationship looks like are often based on qualitative toxicokinetic arguments. For example, the recently proposed KMD (Kinetically-derived Maximum Dose) states that the IED relationship must have an ...

Calculation of the effective external dose rate to a person staying in the resettlement zone of the Vetka district of the Gomel region of Belarus based on in situ and ex situ assessments in 2016-2018.

Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2020
The aim of this study was to perform a preliminary assessment of the expected effective dose rate from external exposure to an adult individual staying at that part of the radioactively contaminated territory of the Vetka district of the Gomel region of ...

External Radiation Doses from Occupational Exposure

Nature, 1969
Records accumulated between 1960 and 1965 of radiation doses received by a wide range of radiation workers in the United Kingdom have been summarized. Doses were generally small.

Brazilian External Occupational Dose Management System

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2010
Brazil, a large country, with more than 120,000 workers under individual monitoring for ionising radiation, developed, more than 20 y ago, a centralised data bank for external occupational dose. This old database, however, presented some problems and does not satisfy any more Brazilian present needs, not allowing dose analysis reports, for example ...

Assessment of external dose indoors in Lithuania

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2005
The aim of this paper was an assessment of external exposure indoors and its dependence on construction materials and indoor radon concentrations in Lithuanian living houses. Relationship of absorbed dose rate in air indoors and activity indexes of the most commonly used construction materials (wood, concrete and bricks) have been studied using results
