Abstract:-The measurement performances of in vivo monitoring vehicles were studied considering an increase in the radiological background in areas where the population is not evacuated after a nuclear accident. The study focused on 137 Cs and 131 I Detection Limits (DLs) and corresponding doses, for adults and one-year-old children. These DLs for ground contamination were obtained experimentally using a grid of point sources. Then, the DLs and doses were calculated using the experimental data and a safety factor for t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
