  Abstract

A new type of extremity dosemeter, which incorporates the Harshaw TLD EXTRADTM dosemeter element into a PVC finger stall, has been developed. The dosemeter uses high-sensitivity lithium fluoride, 7LiF:Mg,Cu,P (TLD-700H) in a thin 7 mg cm–2 layer, with alternative coverings of PVC at 10 mg cm–2 and aluminised polyester at 3.2 mg cm–2. Results are presented of the type testing of both versions of the finger stall dosemeter against published standards.
