Abstract

Abstract Within the scope of the amendment of the Radiation Protection Ordinance, it became necessary to lay down new limit values, as a result of both the modifications made in the stipulations of the EU directives, and improvements in the level of scientific and technological advancement. This led, at the same time, to the necessity of recalculating the permitted levels for activity concentrations in exhaust air from applications involving isotopes (mostly from medical installations). The following article provides an overview of the approach applied in the recalculation of the permitted activity concentration levels in exhaust air for around 800 radionuclides, along with a comparison of the limit values which have been applied up until the present.
