Emergency response plans have long been focused on accidents at nuclear power plants. Recently, the malevolent use of radiation aimed at creating disruption in the society has been considered as a possible threat. In this kind of emergency situations casualties will most likely be members of the public and the number of affected people can vary from a few to mass casualties. There is an evident need for rapid measurements of large groups of internally contaminated people. Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (STUK) in Finland has obtained new monitors for thyroid and simple whole-body measurements in field conditions as a part of the continuous improving of emergency preparedness. The new monitors consist of a NaI(Tl) detector and a control unit. The monitors work as spectrometers allowing real-time spectrum analysis in the field.
应急响应计划长期以来一直专注于核电站事故。最近，恶意使用辐射以制造社会混乱被视为一种可能的威胁。在这类紧急情况下，伤亡人员很可能是公众，受影响人数可能从几人到大量伤亡不等。显然需要对大量体内受污染人员进行快速测量。作为持续改进应急准备工作的一部分，芬兰辐射与核安全管理局（STUK）已获得用于现场甲状腺和简易全身测量的新型监测仪。新型监测仪由一个碘化钠（铊）探测器和一个控制单元组成。这些监测仪作为光谱仪工作，可在现场进行实时光谱分析。
