1 Individual Monitoring Services (IMS) for External and Internal Exposures B. Morelli, C.M. Castellani, P. Battisti ENEA Radiation Protection Institute, Bologna (Italy) Contribution to the Italy in Japan 2011 initiative Science, Technology and Innovation
2 ENEA IRP Individual Monitoring Service The IMS is processing about 70,000 dosemeters per years: 6000 photon dosemeter; 1300 thermal neutron dosemeters; 1300 fast neutron dosemeters; 2000 extremity dosemeters for monitoring period of 45 days and 90 days for extremity dosemeters. The IMS provides dosemeters to about 200 external users: - 25% hospital, - 25% research institute, - 25% industry, - 5% decommissioning of the nuclear plants - 20% other mainly private laboratory. 2
3 ENEA IRP Individual Monitoring Service The IMS provides 5 kinds of dosemeters to assess Personal Dose Equivalent Hp(d) and Ambient Dose Equivalent H*(d) as required by Italian Legislation (D. Lgs. 241/2000). Photon dosemeter Thermal Neutron Dosemeter Fast neutron dosemeter - whole body TL dosemeter for photons, based on 2 detectors of LiF(Mg,Cu,P) (GR200); - whole body TL dosemeter for thermal neutrons and gamma based on 2 detectors of LiF(Mg,Cu,P) (GR200) and 7 LiF(Mg,Cu,P) (GR207); - whole body SSNDT (CR-39 ) dosemeter for fast neutrons; 3
4 ENEA IRP Individual Monitoring Service Extremity dosemeters GR200 MCP-Ns - extremity TL dosemeter for X, and high energy with one detector of LiF(Mg,Cu,P) GR200 - extremity TL dosemeter for X, and mean energy with one thin detector of LiF(Mg,Cu,P) MCP-Ns both available with ring or bracelet supports suitable for sterilization 4

6 ENEA IRP Individual monitoring Service The internal dosimetry (Laboratories for in vivo measuremens) Casaccia: High Energy whole body counter - Low energy organ counter; Saluggia: High Energy whole body counter; Bologna: High Energy whole body counter - transportable Thyroid counter Trisaia High Energy whole body counter Monitoring measurements performed per year: about 1000 (35% for ENEA workers). The Internal dosimetry (Laboratory for in vitro measurements) The unit is organized as a unique laboratory split into three separate, intercalibrated sublabs, Casaccia,Saluggia and Trisaia, all of them equipped by alpha spectrometry, scintillation counting, gamma spectrometry, alpha and beta counting (ICP mass spectrometry only in Casaccia) Main analyses provided: Actinides, Uranium isotopes, 226 Ra, 210 Po, 90 Sr, 14 C, 3 H, gamma emitters. Monitoring analysis performed per year: over 2000 (30% for ENEA workers). The lab regularly participates to PROCORAD Intercomparisons since
