Work performed since the last Workshop meeting is summarized. The studies have been divided into the following sections: (1) response of albedo neutron dosimeters to low energy neutrons; (2) discussion of dose-equivalent conversion factors; (3) modification of the A-B remitter; (4) the effect of distance from the body on the response of albedo neutron dosimeters; (5) comparison of albedo neutron dosimeter techniques; and (6) modified NAD badge for additional beta shielding and albedo neutron dosimetry.
