Comparison of dosimetric modeling of the International Commission on Radiological Protection trout reference animal

Creator:

Comolli, Michelle LeAnne

Abstract:

Radiation protection has historically been from a human protection approach, therefore many studies have neglected the potential dose contribution from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in animal studies. The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) utilized simplified geometric shapes with Dose Conversion Factors (DCF) based on homogenized models for the trout...

Development and Application of Voxelized Dosimetric Models for Biota : Characterization of the Uncertainty in the International Commission on Radiological Protection's Wildlife Dosimetry System

Creator:

Caffrey, Emily Amanda

Abstract:

A system for radiological dosimetry for nonhuman biota developed by International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) relies on calculations that utilize the Monte Carlo simulations of simple, ellipsoidal geometries with internal radioactivity distributed homogeneously throughout. In this manner it is quick and easy to estimate whole-body dose rates to biota....
