Fig.7-16 Flowchart of dose assessment by RADAPAS, based upon source configuration data
A user sets up a source configuration of nuclear fuel and the surrounding shielding, which determines the characteristics of radiation in a field. The database contains dose conversion coefficients for more than 50 configurations. Radiation dose induced in a body can be calculated from the radioactivity of 24Na using a conversion coefficient, which is automatically selected, based upon the source configuration. Radiation dose is calculated right after the conditions are input, and then the dose information can be given to the medical staff.
