IAEA Intercomparisons for Individual Monitoring for Individual Monitoring of Photon Radiation 1987-1998

J. Böhm and R. Cruz Suárez (INVITED)

In 1985 a technical committee set up by the IAEA formulated tasks to be performed in individual monitoring and recommended 'some type of personnel dosimetry activity'. Since 1987 several coordinated research projects have been performed within the Agency's Research Contract Programme concerning intercomparisons for individual monitoring. While the first intercomparison focused on the impact of the possible adoption of the new set of operational quantities introduced in ICRU Report 39 in 1985, later intercomparisons concentrated on the performance of personnel dosimetry services. In the last intercomparison, dosimetry services for nuclear power plants in IAEA Member States in Eastern Europe were given an opportunity to gain experience with the recommendations of the IAEA to use the operational quantity Hp(10). This paper analyses whether the important tasks formulated in 1985 were actually solved. It summarises the various intercomparisons carried out between 1987 and 1998 and highlights some results.
