Description

It is shown that dosimeter earlier calibrated with Gamma-Radiation from Co-60 underestimates the absorbed dose due to 9 MeV-Gamma-Radiation in its maximum in water and/or tissue by a factor of 1.89 or nearly 2, if the chip behine the 10mg/cm2 filter is used and a factor of 1.38 if the chip behind the 285 mg/cm2 filter is evaluated
