Chapter 3 RADIATION DOSIMETERS - IAEA
www-naweb.iaea.orgA radiation dosimeter is a device, instrument or system that measures or evaluates, either directly or indirectly, the quantities exposure, kerma, absorbed dose or equivalent dose, or their time derivatives (rates), or related quantities of ionizing radiation. A dosimeter along with its reader is referred to as a dosimetry system.

www.who.intSOURCES OF ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE Emissions from natural as well as artificial sources make up the EMF environment we live in. Natural sources, which include EMF radiation from the sun, the earth, the atmosphere including lightning discharges, account for only a small fraction of the overall EMF emissions in the 0-300 GHz frequency range.

www.aerb.gov.in•The most common type of ionizing radiation used in medicine all over the world are X-rays since its discovery. •There are obvious benefits from medical uses of X-rays , however there are well established health risks from radiation if improperly applied. Hence every medical procedure involving radiation needs to be justified.
