This pioneering work brings together recommendations sanctioned by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) and documents 40 years of cutting-edge work with Monte Carlo Codes and radiation protection dosimetry. Assembling the work of nearly all major phantom (computational model) developers around the world, it examines detailed accounts for each well-known phantom, including those for applications for radiation protection dosimetry involving environmental, nuclear power plant, and internal contamination exposures, as well as a host of medical applications. Related datasets can be downloaded from the authors' website. ¿…mehr
