The paper introduces the projects launched by the European Community to foster prospects in dosimetry, radiation protection and best use of equipment in the medical field. These projects are put in perspective with the European legal framework for radiation protection, in particular, the Basic Safety Standards Directive, the Medical Exposures Directive and the Directive on High-Activity Sealed Sources. A summary is given of the overall mission statements of the commission services in the field of radiation protection, including the field of research, and how they relate to other actions in the overall health policy of the EU. In conclusion, a number of priority areas for future work in the medical field are highlighted.
本文介绍了欧洲共同体发起的一些项目，这些项目旨在促进医学领域剂量测定、辐射防护及设备最佳利用方面的发展前景。这些项目与欧洲辐射防护法律框架相关联，尤其是《基本安全标准指令》《医疗照射指令》和《高活度密封源指令》。文中总结了委员会服务部门在辐射防护领域（包括研究领域）的总体任务声明，以及它们与欧盟整体卫生政策中其他行动的关系。最后，强调了医学领域未来工作的一些优先领域。
