Studies - comparing extremity finger rings vs. finger cots

["Sandy Perle" <sandyfl@EARTHLINK.NET>]

I am interested in obtaining data that compares extremity monitoring, 

finger rings versus finger cots. For those who are not familiar with 

the term finger cot, it is basically a finger tip dosimeter, where a 

TL element is placed in a condom type finger encasement (used in the 

UK primarily). If you have any data, I am interested in varying types 

of radiation comparisons, varying photon energies, beta energies, 

etc. An ideal comparison would be where someone is currently wearing 

both types of dosimeters, routinely.



Any information would be most appreciated. If you have data, please 

send the information to me directly if you prefer not to post 

publicly.



Thank you in advance.
