Atomic and radiological crises can be caused by accidents, military activities, terrorist
assaults involving atomic installations, the explosion of nuclear devices, or the utilization of …

Purpose Transcriptomic-based approaches are being developed to meet the needs for large-
scale radiation dose and injury assessment and provide population triage following a …

Following the issuance of new radiological protection recommendations in ICRP Publication
103, the Commission released, in ICRP Publication 110, the adult male and female voxel …

Electron paramagnetic resonance, thermoluminescence, and optically stimulated
luminescence, with biological tissues and inert materials are well established physical …

The influence of dose rate on radiation cataractogenesis has yet to be extensively studied.
One recent epidemiological investigation suggested that protracted radiation exposure …

In the event of a large-scale event leading to acute ionizing radiation exposure, high-
throughput methods would be required to assess individual dose estimates for triage …

Purpose: A European network was initiated in 2012 by 23 partners from 16 European
countries with the aim to significantly increase individualized dose reconstruction in case of …

Biological dosimetry enables individual dose reconstruction in the case of unclear or
inconsistent radiation exposure situations, especially when a direct measurement of ionizing …

Biological and physical retrospective dosimetry are recognised as key techniques to provide
individual estimates of dose following unplanned exposures to ionising radiation. Whilst …

Purpose Biological and/or physical assays for retrospective dosimetry are valuable tools to
recover the exposure situation and to aid medical decision making. To further validate and …
