Abstract
In the scope of the IDEAS project to develop General Guidelines for the Assessment of Internal Dose from Monitoring data,
two databases were compiled. The IDEAS Bibliography database contains references dealing with problems related to cases
of internal contamination. The IDEAS Internal Contamination Database now contains more than 200 cases of internal
contamination. In the near future, the IDEAS Internal Contamination database will be made available to the internal
dosimetry community. The database has several potential applications, including: training, testing biokinetic models, testing
software for calculating intakes and doses from bioassay data, comparison of data from a new accidental intake with that
from previous exposures to similar materials. The database is by no means complete, and this presentation is also an appeal
for internal contamination cases to extend and update it.
