the DARI (Dose Annuelle due aux Radiations Internes), which is the annual dose equivalent due to radioactivity in the body, mainly from K-40 and C-14 (approximately 0.17 mSv/y or 170 mrem/y).

Garwin and Charpak define 1 DARI = 0.2 mSv/y.

Radsafe:
To correct the inadvertant typo:
0.17 mSv/y = 17 mrem/y
