1.0 Purpose

This Technical Information Bulletin provides guidance on selecting appropriate ICRP modeled 

organs/tissues in the Integrated Modules for Bioassay Analysis (IMBA) software program to estimate 

the internal dose for specific ICD-9 codes, the appropriate organs/tissues to estimate external dose,

and the appropriate model in the Interactive RadioEpidemiological Program (IREP). 

2.0 Background

Under EEOICPA, the organs/tissues for which doses must be estimated are those delineated by the 

specified ICD-9 code received from the Department of Labor (DOL). While many ICD-9 codes are 

clear in their intended organ/tissue, additional guidance is necessary to identify the appropriate IMBA 

model, organ/tissue for external dose estimate, and IREP model to use for the organ/tissue. This TIB 

designates the appropriate organ/tissue selection within IMBA to use for the various ICD-9 coded 

cancers, the appropriate organ/tissue to estimate external dose, and the appropriate IREP model to 

use as well.

3.0 Guidance

The following table correlates ICD-9 codes to the appropriate organ/tissue selection in IMBA, the 

appropriate organ/tissue selection for external dose estimate, and the appropriate IREP model. 

Organs/tissues labeled “Highest non-met org/tiss” indicate that dose to the highest non-metabolic 

organ is to be used to represent the dose to the ICD-9 Code designated organ/tissue. A discussion of 

this term is included in section 4.0 of this bulletin. The remaining regions are described by the term 

used in IMBA.

1 - See discussion in Section 4.3

3 – For secondary cancers, doses are assessed for the likely primary cancer site(s), which are selected using guidance in Table 7 of the 

NIOSH-IREP Technical Documentation.

4 - 42 CFR 81.30 states this cancer is non-radiogenic for the purposes of EEOICPA and assigns zero probability of causation.

5 – For ICD-9 code 232, if the type of cancer is specified by DOL (Malignant melanoma or Non-melanoma skin-Squamous cell) use only the 

specified IREP model (note that Bowden’s disease is another name for Squamous Cell Carcinoma in situ). If the cancer is not specified, run 

both IREP models as discussed in Section 4.6.

4.0 Discussion

4.1 Highest Non-metabolic organ

The dose estimate for a number of tissues is based on the highest non-metabolic organ dose, 

designated as “Highest non-met org/tiss” in the table. Metabolic organs are those that are specifically 

modeled by the ICRP for a particular element. The biokinetic models are based on the behavior of 

the particular element in the body, so the metabolic organs vary with the element of interest. The 

metabolic organs also include the gastrointestinal tract (ICRP 30) and, in the case of inhalation, the 

respiratory tract (ICRP 66).

For radionuclides that primarily emit alpha or beta radiation, the soft tissue compartment becomes the 

primary recipient of dose. This compartment contains all the organs not specifically accounted for in 

the metabolic model. This compartment accounts for the dose delivered by material actually 

deposited in that tissue. An additional source of exposure to the tissue is known as photon crossirradiation. This cross-irradiation is the exposure to a tissue from photons originating in other tissues.
Effective Date: 01/23/2004 Revision No. 01 Document No. ORAUT-OTIB-0005 Page 19 of 20

When the energy emitted by a radionuclide is primarily alpha or beta radiation, the soft tissue 

compartment becomes the primary source of dose. Under this scenario most of the non-metabolic 

organs receive the same dose. For radionuclides where photon emissions are a major source of 

energy emitted, the non-metabolic organ doses can vary due to their relative proximity to the 

metabolic organs in which the radionuclides concentrate. IMBA calculates the dose from both means 

of irradiation and sums them. For many radionuclides (predominately alpha and beta emitters) this 

will cause only minor differences in doses to non-metabolic organs, so choosing the highest is a 

realistic assumption with only minor (if any) overestimation.

It is conceivable that a situation could arise where a photon emitting radionuclide causes a large 

difference in doses delivered to non-metabolic organs. In accordance with the Internal Dose 

Reconstruction Implementation Guideline, it is acceptable in these situations to base the dose on an 

organ that is not the highest non-metabolic organ. The choice in these cases should be based on the 

proximity of the model organ to the actual organ of interest.

4.2 Medical review

Due to the complexity of determining the appropriate organ/tissue for some ICD-9 code cancers, a 

medical review by an ORAU team physician is required to determine the organ/tissue to use in IMBA 

for those cancers. These cancers have been designated in the table as “Medical review.” The ORAU 

team physician will recommend to the dose reconstructor the appropriate organ/tissue for dose 

estimation purposes.

4.3 Thyroid/Remainder Selection for External Dose

For cancer sites where “Thyroid/Remainder” is listed for the external organ selection, there is no 

external dose model for the organ of interest and the organ is located in close proximity to the thyroid.. 

The thyroid has higher organ dose conversion factors than the remainder selection, thereby 

maximizing the dose. If a more realistic dose assessment is required rather than a maximizing dose 

assessment, then the remainder organ should be selected to calculate dose. 

4.4 Remainder Selection for External Dose

When there are cancers of multiple organs or the cancer site are unknown, such as with lymphatic 

cancers, the remainder organ should be selected as the model to apply dose. However, if the organ 

location can be determined through the medical records or a medical review, then an organ in close 

physical proximity should be selected. The remainder selection provides a claimant favorable 

estimate of dose. 

4.5 Bladder

When the term “Bladder” is used in the table with no modifier, this represents the urinary bladder. 

When the organ of interest is the gallbladder, “Gallbladder” is specified clearly in the table above.

4.6 Multiple IREP Models

When multiple IREP models are listed for a given cancer type, the IREP model(s) to be run is 

determined based upon the use of the words “OR” and “AND” in the IREP Model column.

For multiple IREP models listed that are connected by the word “OR”, only the model that best fits the 

actual cancer type should be selected and run in IREP. For example, ICD-9 code 173.0 has listed 
Effective Date: 10/29/2004 Revision No. 01 PC-3 Document No. ORAUT-OTIB-0005 Page 20 of 20

“Non-melanoma skin-Basal cell OR Non-melanoma skin-Squamous cell” in the IREP Model column. 

The appropriate IREP model would be selected and run based on the type of skin cancer (Basel cell 

or Squamous cell) listed in the claim’s NIOSH Referral Summary Document (NRSD).

For multiple IREP models listed that are connected by the word “AND”, separate IREP runs are made 

for each of the listed models, and compensability is determined based on the claimant favorable 

model resulting in the highest probability of causation. For example, ICD-9 code 233.3 has listed 

“Female genitalia less ovary AND Ovary “ in the IREP Model column. Separate IREP runs would be 

made using each model and compensability would be based upon the model that resulted in the 

highest probability of causation.
