Definitions of Low Dose/Doserate

[Chris Alston <alstonc@odrge.odr.georgetown.edu>]

Federal Guidance Report 13 - Part 1, Interim Version (EPA 402-R-97-014;
January 1998): ". . . low doses, defined as acute absorbed doses less than
0.2 Gy, . . . low dose rates, defined as dose rates less than 0.1 mGy min^-1
. . ." Presumably, this is soon to be the gospel.
