Uranium exposure assessment - a critical review
Description
The author's involvement in the assessment of internal exposure for epidemiological studies has led to the conclusion that the present ICRP uranium methodology has several shortcomings when used for this purpose. This paper outlines the methodology used to produce more ''realistic'' assessments for current epidemiology work and proposes ways of further refining future assessments. (UK)
