Biometric estimation of chest wall thickness of female radiation workers as an aid in in-vivo detection of the actinides

OSTI ID:6096424
An equation was derived to estimate female chest wall thickness from a series of biometric measurements. This technique will result in improved performance for actinide detection in females by accounting for variations in chest wall thickness in derivation of calibration factors.
