TL;DR: The 2007 Recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection introduced changes that affect the calculation of effective dose, and implied a revision of the dose coefficients for internal exposure, published previously in the Publication 30 series and Publication 68.

TL;DR: This publication provides the technical basis for SAFs relevant to internalised radionuclide activity in the organs of Reference Adult Male and Reference Adult Female as defined in Publications 89 and 110 and outlines the computational methodology and nomenclature for assessment of internal dose in a manner consistent with that used for nuclear medicine applications.

TL;DR: Assessment of internal occupational exposure to radionuclides, biokinetic and dosimetric models, methods of individual and workplace monitoring, and general aspects of retrospective dose assessment are described.

TL;DR: The 2007 Recommendations introduced changes that affect the calculation of effective dose, and implied a revision of the dose coefficients for internal exposure, published previously in the Publication 30 series and Publications 54, 68, and 78.

TL;DR: The radiological implications of ingestion of nuclear fuel fragments present in the marine environment around Dounreay have been reassessed by using the Monte Carlo code MCNP to obtain improved estimates of the doses to target cells in the walls of the lower large intestine resulting from the passage of a fragment.
