Description

Measurements were made of radon levels in indoor atmospheres of 19 radon spas situated in the U.S.S.R. (15), G.D.R. (2), and Bulgaria (2). In 5 cases (U.S.S.R.: 1, G.D.R.: 2, Bulgaria: 2) the levels were found to exceed the MPC-values. In the New Radon-Clinic of Pyatigorsk, the radiation exposure to staff could be essentially reduced, as compared to the old one, by means of effective ventilation and other measures. (author)
