Abstract

Performance evaluation is typically assessed as part of the approval procedure to verify that a dosimetry system fulfils specified national or international type-test requirements under representative exposure conditions that are expected to mimic workplace fields from the radiological activities being monitored. The International Atomic Energy Agency Radiation Safety Technical Services Laboratory has recently implemented an integrated radiophotoluminescence (RPL) personal dosimetry system developed by Chiyoda Technol Corporation. This paper reports on the successful verification of dosimetric performance properties of the RPL dosimetry system to IEC 62387:2020, in which the badges were exposed to a range of radiation energies and angles of incidence as well as other influence parameters. Characteristics under test included the coefficient of variation, non-linearity of response due to dose dependence as well as the energy and angular response to photon and beta radiation.
