HOW TO ESTABLISH AN ADEQUATE SYSTEM FOR EYE LENS DOSE MONITORING: A PROPOSAL FOR TYPICAL WORKPLACES Open
For years, the dose limit of 150 mSv for occupational exposure of the lens of the eye to ionising radiation was rarely exceeded, and the dose to the eye was only monitored occasionally. With the national implementation of the European Basi…
