Operational Quantities and Calibration Procedures for Individual Monitoring
A calibration procedure using H'(d) as the operational quantity and calibrating the individual monitor in front of the ICRU sphere has been considered in the literature. The deficiencies of this concept are discussed and an improved calibration procedure using a new operational quantity defined in the ICRU sphere is proposed. The individual monitor would then be calibrated in front of an anthropomorphic phantom.
