Luminescence properties of common glasses for application to retrospective dosimetry
Radiation Measurements, 2012 Seventeen domestic and scientific glass specimens were investigated for thermoluminescence (TL) properties suitable for application to retrospective population dosimetry. Usefulness for retrospective dosimetry was initially judged by the presence of well-

Retrospective Dosimetry Related to Chronic Environmental Exposure
Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 1998Radioactive contamination of the environment occurred in the early fifties as a result of the releases from the Mayak plutonium production complex (Southern Urals, Russia). The releases of liquid wastes into the Techa river resulted in chronic exposure of 30,000 residents of the riverside communities. Since 1951 90Sr body burdens have been measured for

Aspects of retrospective ESR dosimetry (invited paper)
Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1996A review is given on the major technological and methodological aspects of retrospective ESR dosimetry with tooth enamel. Topics include the collection and preparation of samples, the evaluation, treatment and interpretation of the ESR signals, and the procedure of dose reconstruction.

EPR Retrospective Dosimetry with Fingernails
Health Physics, 2014For localized irradiation to hands, in case of sources accidentally handled, it is very difficult to estimate the dose distribution by calculation. Doses may reach several tens of grays, and the dose distribution is usually very heterogeneous. Until recently, doses in such situations could be estimated only by analysis of bone biopsies using Electron ...

Retrospective Dosimetry using Unheated Quartz: A Feasibility Study
Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2002Most attempts to apply retrospective dosimetry to building materials have made use of heated (sensitised) items such as brick or tile ceramic. Unfired materials, such as concrete, are far more widespread in the industrial environment, but unfortunately these cannot be assumed to contain a negligible dose at the time of construction.

Retrospective dosimetry based on egg shells
Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1994Abstract Irradiated egg shells exhibit a paramagnetic center at g = 2.0018. The center is stable up to temperatures of 150°C and against u.v. light. The center concentration as determined by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy increases with absorbed dose.

The Chernobyl experience in the area of retrospective dosimetry
Journal of Radiological Protection, 2012The Chernobyl accident, which occurred on 26 April 1986 at a nuclear power plant located less than 150 km north of Kiev, was the largest nuclear accident to date. The unprecedented scale of the accident was determined not only by the amount of released activity, but also by the number of workers and of the general public involved, and therefore exposed

Retrospective Biological Dosimetry by FISH
2007This chapter reviews the present status of applying fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) for retrospective biological dosimetry by chromosomal analysis. The technique helps to overcome a major drawback, the limited persistence of signal, of the more traditional method of dicentric analysis.

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Retrospective Dosimetry
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2011Necessity for, principles of, and general concepts of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) retrospective dosimetry are presented. Also presented and given in details are examples of EPR retrospective dosimetry applications in tooth enamel, bone, and fingernails with focus on general approaches for solving technical and methodological problems ...
