An EPR model for separating internal 90Sr doses from external gamma-ray doses in teeth

Robert B Hayes et al. Health Phys. 2002 Jul.

Abstract

The problem of retrospectively measuring radiation doses to humans having both external and internal exposures is addressed. A simplified theoretical model is presented by which the internal exposure from a bone seeking radionuclide can be measured and distinguished from an external gamma-ray dose. The model also provides a means of estimating initial acute uptakes of 90Sr.
