Abstract
In the experimental department of the Urals research center for radiation medicine (Chelyabinsk, Russia) the radiobiological studies are carried out with the IGUR-1M gamma installation. In this study, the numerical experiment has been performed to specify the radiation doses in experimental mice and corresponding uncertainties. We evaluate the factors converting the dose in air measured by the ionization chamber to the dose to an organism, which is dependent on the height of the cage with the animals. The relative standard uncertainties of radiation doses for mice under 7 days of age do not exceed 7%. For more active older animals, the uncertainty of the delivered radiation doses can reach 10%.
