Re: Dosimeter vs. dosemeter

["Sandy Perle" <sandyfl@earthlink.net>]

Bjorn asked about the spelling od dosimeter or dosemeter.

Here in the USA we use the term dosimeter. In the UK, as well as 
other countries, they use the term dosemeter. In our accreditation 
for the UK, all of our documents, procedures and reports that are 
part of the UK accreditation had to be worded semantically to emulate 
the english terminology.

Regards,
