| Summary: | (RSD) Inc. RS-122T an-n/shoulder phantom. Extremity and photon transport code. bare, D20moderated and polyethylene moderated 112Cf. The body conversion factor. The tissue-and-bone phantoms exhibit body factor. Glovebox fluence-to-dose equivalent conversion Calculated DOELAP and RSD extremity fluence-to-dose calculated fluence-to-dose equivalent conversion factors to calculated for three types of finger and wrist extremity conversion factors 1 to 10 percent greater than the whole- correction factors is performed. DOELAP free-field calibration geometry and a realistic equivalent conversion factors for the free-field calibration factors are determined at shallow surface and bone levels for factors range from 12 percent less than to 128 percent factors. A preliminary evaluation of the application of the geometry are 1 to 9 percent lower than the calculated whole- glovebox scenario are simulated using a Monte Carlo neutron greater than calculated free-field whole-body conversion Los Alamos National Laboratory extremity dosimeter National Laboratory; and (3) the Radiology Support Devices Neutron fluence-to-dose equivalent conversion factors are phantoms: (1) the polymethyl methacrylate models specified by Program for Personnel Dosimetry Systems (DOELAP); (2) the the U.S. Department of Energy Laboratory Accreditation tissue-and-bone phantoms suggested by Pacific Northwest |
