Eurados intercomparison on measurements and Monte Carlo modelling for the assessment of Americium in an Ustur leg phantom.

Abstract

A collaboration of the EURADOS working group on ‘Internal Dosimetry’ and the United States Transuranium and Uranium Registries (USTUR) has taken place to carry out an intercomparison on measurements and Monte Carlo modelling determining americium deposited in the bone of a USTUR leg phantom. Preliminary results and conclusions of this intercomparison exercise are presented here.
