ICRP - Human Alimentary Tract Model for Radiological Protection

["Fred Dawson" <fd003f0606@blueyonder.co.uk>]

A ICRP Task Group was appointed by Committee 2 to review the dosimetric

model of the gastrointestinal tract used in ICRP Publication 30 (1979) and

recommend revisions. The revised model described in this publication is

applicable to children as well as adults. The new model will be used in

future ICRP publications giving dose coefficients for radionuclide intakes

following either occupational or environmental exposures. It will also be

used in

publications concerned with the interpretation of bioassay measurements.
