Description

Specific kerma equivalent, specific Kerma and quality factor have been calculated for photons and neutrons in the photon energy range from 0.1 KeV to 20 MeV and the neutron energy range from thermal neutron energies up to 20 MeV. The latest recomendation of the tissue composition, the LET data for charged particles and more recent cross-sections data for photon and neutron reactions induced in tissue have been used. This information can be used to estimate the radiation dose equivalent and for the interpretation of the tissue-equivalent equidosemeter energy responses
