Abstract
An additional extremity monitoring using a ring badge must be appropriately conducted for inhomogeneous exposure around radiation workers' extremity. Commercially available glass dosemeters are characterized in terms of Hp(0.07) for the application of additional extremity monitoring. A series of experiments demonstrated that the response of the model GD-352M radiophotoluminescence dosemeter fully matched the IEC's criteria for an extremity dosemeter for medical personnel. Although the model GD-302M has excellent angular dependence, the material and the shape of energy compensation filter still need to be optimized to improve its energy dependence in the range between 30 and 100keV. The combine use of both types of glass dosemeters for 'paired dosemeter' together with introduction of a simple algorithm may be a promising method to improve the response in the energy range below 20keV.
