The ICRP and Dosimetry: (Glasnost) Redux

Abstract

The widespread acceptance of very similar radiation protection standards has truly been a triumph for the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). Stability and consistency in both philosophy and policy are vital elements in maintaining this important consensus. Nevertheless occasional fine-tuning of the Commission's recommendations is necessary so that they remain in consonance with current knowledge and new developments.
