Problems in meeting regulatory requirements related to the skin dose

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In accordance with the general recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) stating that the dose limit for the skin dose in terms of the relevant equivalent dose is not supposed to exceed 500 mSv in a year. Since the actual equivalent dose has to be averaged over 1 cm2 area of skin regardless of the area exposed, such a requirement is impossible to verify based on a routine monitoring relying on the reading of finger dosimeter. This dosimeter, usually a TLD, gives the information about personal dose equivalent at the depth of 0.07 mm but its position is generally not at the point where with maximum exposure. Averaging TLD reading over the prescribed area is also questionable. The paper is aimed at the assessment of the correction factors which would convert the TLD reading into the recommended quantity so that the compliance with dose limit could be confronted.
