Response:

I received a program entitled CDI3 back in 1989.  It came from CDRH.
The accompanying reference was titled "Computer Program for Calculating
Tissue Doses in Diagnostic Radiology." Program formats were in VAX and DOS
(IBM compatible).  Authors were Leif E. Peterson and Marvin Rosenstein.
It was a very useful program. 

The source was:   Office of Health Physics, HFZ-60
                  Center for Devices and Radiological Health
                  12720 Twinbrook Parkway
                  Rockville, MD 20857
                  
I don't know who the point of contact is, or a phone number, as this
reference is about 5 years old.

either the US Government or the US Army.  Any opinions about it are 
purely my own.
                            Good Luck
