Since the dose reports contain names, birthdates and social security numbers, we do not recommend that the reports be posted in the lab. Contact your Authorized User or lab manager to find out how the information from the monitoring reports is made available. In the case of body dosimeters, doses are reported as deep or shallow or as doses to the lens of the eye. Deep dose is due to penetrating radiations such as x- or gamma radiation. Deep doses are applied against the whole body dose limit.
Shallow dose is due to less penetrating radiations such as beta radiation and low energy x-rays.
Shallow doses are applied against the skin dose limit. Dose to the lens of the eyes is due to an intermediate range of radiations and energies and is applied against the lens of the eye dose limit. In the case of ring dosimeters, dose is only reported as shallow dose and is applied against the extremities dose limit. Doses are reported in millirem. Contact EHS if you change your name, if your name is misspelled, or if any other information on the dosimetry report is incorrect.
