Practical Radiation Protection Aspects of the ICRU 39 Quantities

G. Drexler and D. Regulla (INVITED)

The justification for the new dose equivalent quantities is essentially based on metrological arguments. Desirable properties from the viewpoint of radiation protection have less weight in the ICRU proposal. Critical considerations are expressed on the usefulness of these new quantities in the system of optimisation and limitation of occupational exposures. Difficulties in the field of other exposure situations from external radiation are indicated.
