A Test of Reliability of the Personnel Dosimetry Services Authorized by CSN using Photon Beams; Control de los servicios de dosimetria personal autorizados por el CSN, usando haces de fotones

Abstract

In 1987 the Consejo de Seguridad Nuclear (CSN) had eight Personnel Dosimetry Services (PDS) authorized to asses the equivalent doses to the spanish occupationally exposed workers, by means of the readings from the dosemeters wear by them. An audit was carried on the PDS on behalf of CSN under the control of CIEMAT. Batches of dosemeters from each one of the PDS were irradiated to dose equivalent values which were well established by CIEMAT but kept hidden from the PDS. By comparing the true values with those obtained by the PDS, it was possible to evaluate the Services according to the analysis of the quantity Q= I B I -I- S where B is the average of the individual deviations between the dosemeters belonging to the same group and the true value as established by CIEMAT, whereas S is the standard deviation of the values inside of this same group. The results of the evaluation, which was made using the new ICRU quantities for personnel monitoring, are presented. (Author) 8 refs.
