This article summarizes the status of physical dosimetry for the occupational worker. The review of commercially available physical dosimetry systems was limited to the following technologies: thermoluminescent dosimeters, electronic personnel dosimeters, optically stimulated luminescence dosimeters, and direction ion storage dosimeters. Product reviews were limited to the top models and largest commercial manufacturers in each category. The physical principles of each dosimeter type are discussed. Information was gathered from journal literature, by direct experience, and by inviting six commercial vendors to present their newest technologies. Each system was found to have strengths and weaknesses. Many of the technologies presented by major vendors were still in development and thus could be considered near-future systems.
本文总结了职业工作者物理剂量测定的现状。对市售物理剂量测定系统的综述仅限于以下技术:热释光剂量计、电子个人剂量计、光激励发光剂量计和定向离子存储剂量计。产品综述仅限于每个类别中的顶级型号和最大的商业制造商。讨论了每种剂量计类型的物理原理。信息收集自期刊文献、直接经验,并通过邀请六家商业供应商介绍他们的最新技术。发现每个系统都有优缺点。主要供应商展示的许多技术仍在开发中,因此可被视为近期系统。
