Re: Effective Dose Equivalent



The EDE ( in rem, or Sv) is intended to reflect the risk of stochastic
effects. At the level of total dose and doserate you're concerned about,
deterministic effects are the concern, and the Sv is not properly applicable.
Doses to tissues should be done as kerma, the units being grays.
