Los Alamos Radiation Protection Internal Dosimetry (Bioassay) Pamphlet
- Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
A radionuclide intake happens when a radioactive material enters the body through inhalation or ingestion or through a wound. Because the radiation produced by some materials (such as plutonium, americium, uranium, and tritium) cannot leave the body, we look for the materials themselves in urine samples.
