Description

The ICRP publications are the basic source of reference for the international and national legislation in the field of radiation protection. This also applies to the transformation of the ICRP radiation protection principles into international and national law, as is shown in this paper by the example of the optimization principle. The adoption of the ALARA principle as the ICRP-recommended optimization principle by the national or international legislative bodies is briefly reviewed. (DG)

Abstract (German)

Die ICRP-Empfehlungen bilden in sehr weitgehendem Masse die materielle Grundlage fuer die internationale und nationale Strahlenschutzgesetzgebung. Das gilt auch fuer die Transformation der Strahlenschutzgrundsaetze, namentlich des Optimierungsprinzips. Allerdings hat sich das ALARA-Prinzip noch nicht allgemein durchgesetzt. Ueber den Stand der Optimierung im internationalen und deutschen Recht wird berichtet. (DG)
