Medically-derived radionuclides levels in seven heterogeneous urban wastewater treatment plants: The role of operating conditions and catchment area
(Elsevier, 2019-05-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn nuclear medicine radionuclides are administered to patients both for diagnosis or treatment. Subsequently, the excreta from patients, enriched in radionuclides, enter the sewerage networks and reach wastewater treatment ... -
EURADOS Working Group 12 studies in interventional radiology for medical staff dosimetry
(2018-11-01)
Article
Open AccessEURADOS (European Radiation Dosimetry Group)Working Group 12 (dosimetry in medical imaging) established a subtask devoted to the dosimetry of the medical staff employed in interventional radiology practices. As it is widely ... -
Dose calculations in aircrafts after Fukushima nuclear power plant accident – Preliminary study for aviation operations
(Elsevier, 2019-09-01)
Article
Open AccessThere is little information to decision support in air traffic management in case of nuclear releases into the atmosphere. In this paper, the dose estimation due to both, external exposure (i.e. cloud immersion, deposition ... -
Radon behavior investigation based on cluster analysis and atmospheric modelling
(2019-03-15)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyRadon measurements were performed in Huelva, a city located near a phosphogypsum repository in the SW of the Iberian Peninsula, between March 2015 and March 2016. The mean values of this gas oscillate between 5.6 and 10.9 ... -
The influence of operator position, height and body orientation on eye lens dose in interventional radiology and cardiology: Monte Carlo simulations versus realistic clinical measurements
(2016-09-01)
Article
Open AccessObjective:This paper aims to provide some practical recommendations to reduce eye lens dose for work-ers exposed to X-rays in interventional cardiology and radiology and also to propose an eye lens correc-tion factor when ... -

Air kerma to H-P(3) conversion coefficients for IEC 61267 RQR X-RAY radiation qualities: application to dose monitoring of the lens of the eye in medical diagnostics
(2016-09-01)
Article
Open AccessRecent studies highlight the fact that the new eye lens dose limit can be exceeded in interventional radiology procedures and that eye lens monitoring could be required for these workers. The recommended operational quantity ... -
A practical approach to perform the isotropy test for extremity dosemeters
(2016-09-01)
Article
Open AccessThe requirements for determining extremity dosemeter performance have evolved over the past decade. In 2010, the Spanish Nuclear Safety Council (CSN) adopted a national protocol with performance requirements based on ISO ... -
First eurados intercomparison exercise of eye lens dosemeters for medical applications
(2016-09-01)
Article
Open AccessIn the context of the decrease in the eye lens dose limit for occupational exposure to 20 mSv per year stated by the recent revision of the European Basic Safety Standards Directive 2013/59/EURATOM, the European Radiation ... -
Occupational exposure of the eye lens in interventional procedures: how to assess and manage radiation dose
(2016-11-01)
Article
Open AccessOccupational exposure from interventional x-ray procedures is one of the areas in which increased eye lens exposure may occur. Accurate dosimetry is an important element to investigate the correlation of observed radiation ... -

(2018-12-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn the context of a new annual eye lens dose limit for occupational exposure equal to 20 mSv, European Radiation Dosimetry Group (EURADOS) organized an intercomparison dedicated to eye lens dosemeters, including photon and ... -
DPM as a radiation transport engine for PRIMO
(Springer (Biomed Central Ltd.), 2018-12-27)
Article
Open AccessBackground PRIMO is a dose verification system based on the general-purpose Monte Carlo radiation transport code penelope, which implements an accurate physics model of the interaction cross sections and the radiation ...
