Argentine intercomparison programme for personal dosimetry

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2006
An Intercomparison Programme is being carried out in Argentina for individual monitoring services. The programme was designed to test, on a voluntary basis, the performance of the laboratories that provide individual monitoring services for X and gamma radiation fields in the range from low-level dose up to 100 mSv.

Personal Radon Dosimetry from Eyeglass Lenses

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2001
Eyeglass lenses are commonly composed of allyl-diglycol carbonate (CR-39), an alpha-particle detecting plastic, thus making such lenses personal radon dosemeters. Samples of such lenses have been obtained, etched to reveal that radon and radon progeny alpha tracks can be seen in abundance, and sensitivities have been calibrated in radon chambers as a ...

The NRPB PADC Neutron Personal Dosimetry Service

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2001
The UK National Radiological Protection Board has been operating a successful contract neutron personal dosimetry service based on poly-allyl diglycol carbonate (PADC, also known by the trade name CR-39) since 1986, covering about 1500 workers and serving major nuclear sites in the UK and abroad.

PRACTICAL METROLOGICAL ASPECTS OF NEUTRON PERSONAL DOSIMETRY

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2015
This article addresses practical issues as being faced in the process of testing, verification and calibration of passive and active personal neutron dosemeters. Namely, a limited choice of neutron sources and geometric limitations occurring when ISO water phantom is used.

System for Personal Dosimetry in Interventional Radiology

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2002
The progress made in radiological image processing and transmission is being widely applied in new branches of medicine. The increasing use of interventional radiology in research and clinical practice means that new groups of workers are being exposed to radiation and need to be covered by a system of radiation protection.

Glow Curve Evaluation in Routine Personal Dosimetry

Health Physics, 2004
The glow curve of LiF:Mg, Ti (TLD-100) has a well known and defined shape. Several factors, however, can distort the glow curve shape and can lead to incorrect dosimetry. Only proper evaluation of glow curves, either by visual inspection or computerized method, can detect these anomalies.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOSIMETRY WITH THE BeOSL PERSONAL DOSEMETER

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2016
In the course of this work, a dosemeter for measurement of ambient dose equivalent H*(10) based on the BeOSL dosimetry system was designed. Calculations of the energy response of the two-element BeOSL personal dosemeter in terms of H*(10) showed that the response does not fulfil the requirements of IEC 62387 Especially, the response for photon energies

Future Perspectives in Personal Dosimetry

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 1998
All major aspects of personal dosimetry systems are discussed in respect of likely future changes. It is concluded that the current system of radiation quantities is unlikely to change significantly in the foreseeable future but that electronic dosemeters will increase in popularity as they become smaller, lighter and less expensive.

The NRPB radon personal dosimetry service

Journal of Radiological Protection, 1988
A radon personal dosemeter has been developed. The dosemeter is simple, cheap, robust, disposable and indelibly numbered. The operation principle is that of a radon diffusion chamber, which principle has been established both experimentally and theoretically. The dosemeter is an enclosure which excludes radon progeny and detritus whilst allowing access
