  • Title: [Metrological and operating characteristics of thermoluminescent and photographic film dosimeters for the centralized individual dosimetric monitoring of medical personnel].
    Author: Kalmykov LZ, Gorelik GI, Stadnik LL, Romanova IN, Kovalevskaia LN.
    Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1989 Jul; 34(7):72-6. PubMed ID: 2761377.
    Abstract:
    Characteristics of a TLD thermoluminescent kit with LiF detectors of TLD and DTG-4 types (diameters 3.5 and 5 mm) and TLD-400 were compared with those of a kit of IFKU-1 individual photographic film badges. Individual thermoluminescent dosimeters record a total dose of occupational and background irradiation, and film badges--a dose of occupational irradiation only. It should be taken into account in radiation-hygienic interpretation of individual dosimetric control readings.
