System for estimation of mean active bone marrow dose
Book
·
OSTI ID:4105490
The exposure measurements, model and computer program for estimation of mean active bone marrow doses formerly employed in the 1962 British Survey of x- ray doses and proposed for application to x-ray exposure information obtained in the U. S. Public Health Service's X-Ray Exposure Studies (1966 and 1973) are described and evaluated. The method described is feasible for use to determine the mean active bone marrow doses to adults for examinations having a skin to source distance of 80 cm or less. For a greater SSD, as for example in chest x rays, a small correction in the calculated dose can be made. (auth)
