MONITORING OF PERSONNEL
Monitoring of personnel to determine the amount of radiation to which they have
been exposed provides a valuable cross check to determine whether or not
safety measures are adequate. It may reveal inadequate or improper radiation
protection practices and potentially serious radiation exposure situations.
The most effective method of determining whether or not the existing protective
measures are adequate is the use of instruments to measure the exposure.
These measurements should be taken at all locations where the operator, or
any portion of the body may be exposed. Exposure must never exceed the
accepted tolerable dose.
A frequently used, but less accurate, method of determining the amount of
exposure is the placement of film at strategic locations. After a specified period
of time, develop the film to determine the amount of radiation.
A common method of determining whether personnel have been exposed to
excessive radiation is the use of personal radiation dosimeters. These consist
of X-ray sensitive film or thermoluminescent material enclosed within a holder
that may be worn on the body. Even though this device only measures the
radiation which reaches the area of the body on which they are worn, they do
provide a reasonable indication of the amount of radiation received.
