THE COMPUTATION OF ICRP DOSE COEFFICIENTS FOR INTAKES OF RADIONUCLIDES WITH PLEIADES: BIOKINETIC ASPECTS

Corresponding author: tim.fell{at}hpa.org.uk

The ICRP has published dose coefficients for the inge`stion or inhalation of radionuclides in a series of reports covering intakes by workers and members of the public including children and pregnant or lactating women. The calculation of these coefficients conveniently divides into two distinct parts—the biokinetic and dosimetric. This paper gives a brief summary of the methods used to solve the biokinetic problem in the generation of dose coefficients on behalf of the ICRP, as implemented in the Health Protection Agency's internal dosimetry code PLEIADES.
