Description

ICRU has recommended new quantities to be used in radiation protection measurements for exposures from external sources. These are for environmental monitoring and for individual monitoring of exposure of the trunk of the body. Whereas the application of the quantities for environmental monitoring in the 30 cm diameter ICRU sphere does not pose serious conceptual problems and their implementation will probably be only a matter of time, the quantities for individual monitoring are the subject of lively international discussion
