Abstract

This paper summarises the evaluation of the 1997 EURADOS questionnaire on dosimetric systems able to assess personal dose equivalent. In total, 56 approved dosimetric services in the European Union and Switzerland responded, together monitoring approximately 615,000 occupationally exposed persons. Of these services, 48 stated they were able to assess the external doses in terms of personal dose equivalent. The general aspects of the dosimetric systems and the quality assurance programmes of these services are discussed.
