Abstract

Pertains to all kinds of passive dosimetry systems that are used for measuring: - the personal dose equivalent H[p](10) (for whole body dosimetry), - the personal dose equivalent H[p](3) (for eye lens dosimetry), - the personal dose equivalent H[p](0,07) (for both whole body and extremity dosimetry), - the ambient dose equivalent H*(10) (for environmental dosimetry), or - the directional dose equivalent H'(0,07) (for environmental dosimetry).
