Assessment of individual external exposure doses based on environmental radiation in areas affected by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station accident

Environment International
Assessing individual external exposure doses from ambient dose equivalents is valuable for predictive and retrospective purposes when personal dosimeters are impractical.

Occupational eye dose in interventional cardiology procedures

Scientific Reports, 2017
It is important to measure the radiation dose [3-mm dose equivalent, Hp(3)] in the eye. This study was to determine the current occupational radiation eye dose of staff conducting interventional cardiology procedures, using a novel direct eye dosimeter ...

Relating Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products in Biosolids to Home Exposure

Urban Agriculture & Regional Food Systems, 2019
Municipal biosolids and composts are used on agricultural soils and in urban areas. Greater visibility has resulted in increased concerns about the presence of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in these materials. Scientific studies have

Personal dose equivalent conversion coefficients for neutron fluence over the energy range of 20-250 MeV [PDF]

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2009
Monte Carlo simulations were performed to extend existing neutron personal dose equivalent fluence-to-dose conversion coefficients to an energy of 250 MeV. Presently, conversion coefficients, H(p,slab)(10,alpha)/Phi, are given by ICRP-74 and ICRU-57 for a range of angles of radiation incidence (alpha = 0, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 75 degrees ) in the energy ...

Comparative analysis of the external exposure of different professional groups of medical staff of Dushanbe city of the Republic of Tajikistan

Радиационная гигиена, 2020
The work provides a comparative analysis of average annual individual radiation doses based on the obtained values of individual dose equivalent Hp (10), which had been obtained during 5 years of investigations (2014-2018) by using the thermo-luminescent

Fruit Flies Provide New Insights in Low-Radiation Background Biology at the INFN Underground Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) [PDF]

, 2018
Deep underground laboratories (DULs) were originally created to host particle, astroparticle or nuclear physics experiments requiring a low-background environment with vastly reduced levels of cosmic-ray particle interference. More recently, the range of

Endoscopist’s occupational dose evaluation related to correct wearing of dosimeter during X-ray-guided procedures

Endoscopy International Open, 2019
Background Since endoscopists performing procedures in the endoscopy suite can change their position by turning their back, side or front toward the X-ray source, this study aimed to establish whether dosimeter position affects the correct evaluation of ...

A practical approach to perform the isotropy test for extremity dosemeters [PDF]

, 2016
The requirements for determining extremity dosemeter performance have evolved over the past decade. In 2010, the Spanish Nuclear Safety Council (CSN) adopted a national protocol with performance requirements based on ISO 12794.
