Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, Maryland, USA
Radiat Res 166:168-73. 2006..Based on these efforts, facility- and calendar year-specific adjustment factors have been developed, which will allow risks to be expressed as functions of organ doses with reasonable confidence...
Study of a selection of 10 historical types of dosemeter: variation of the response to Hp(10) with photon energy and geometry of exposureI Thierry-Chef
International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon, France
Radiat Prot Dosimetry 102:101-13. 2002..even at low energy. These results are being used to estimate errors in the response for each dosemeter type, used in the participating facilities, so that these can be taken into account in the estimates of cancer risk...

International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon, France
Radiat Res 167:380-95. 2007..Doses from "lower-energy" photons (<100 keV) and from "higher-energy" photons (>3 MeV) were estimated to be small...
