Description
The hazards associated with ionizing radiation are discussed. Using the recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection as basis, working levels are derived for controling exposure to personnel to within acceptable limits. Methods and procedures are described for controlling exposure to personnel, and appropriate monitoring procedures are given
Abstract (Afrikaans)
Die gevare verbonde aan ioniserende straling word besreek. Op die basis van die aanbevelings van die Internasionale Komitee vir Radiologiese Beskerming word blootstellingsvlakke afgelei wat gebruik word om die blootstelling van personeel binne aanvaarbare grense te beheer. Metodes en prosedures word bespreek vir die beheer van blootstelling van personeel, en toepaslike moniteringsprosedures word gegeeAdditional details
