Popis: | The effective dose of external radiation may be measured as a physical quantity by an indirect method based on direct measurements of air kerma for photons, neutron fluence, or electron fluence, where calculated conversion factors for given irradiation conditions are used. The same method is used for measuring operational quantities. |
