Intercomparison Exercises

EURADOS organizes self-sustained intercomparison exercises on a regular basis where personal dosimeters in suitable fields are irradiated and compared as well as similar exercises where detector systems for environmental monitoring are compared. EURADOS develops and disseminates documents including guidelines on a harmonized dosimetry and surveys on quality assurance. For  example, recent intercomparison exercises included those

  • for extremity dosimeters
  • for eye lens dosimeters for medical applications
  • for whole body photon dosimeters on Monte Carlo-modeling for the in­vivo monitoring of 241Am in skull phantoms
  • for early warning dosimetry network systems
  • for whole body neutron dosimeters and
  • for whole body photon dosimeters.

Results of these exercises  are published as EURADOS reports.

Registration for selected current Intercomparisons can be made under www.eurados-intercomparison.org

  • This intercomparison was organised by WG3 SG1.

  • This intercomparison was organised within WG2.

  • The IC2023calib intercomparison was intended for institutes and laboratories performing calibration and test irradiations of passive dosemeters. Upon registration, the participant could choose one, two, three or four of the following ISO 4037 x-ray and gamma radiation qualities: N-30, N-150, S-Cs (caesium-137), and S-Co (cobalt-60). For each radiation quality, six passive area dosemeters provided by IRSN/France had to be irradiated free-in-air with 10 mSv in terms of H*(10).

    This intercomparison was organised within WG3-SG2.

  • EIVIC2020 is an intercomparison for whole body counters, which is organised jointly by EURADOS (incl. CIEMAT, Spain and KIT, Germany), BfS (Germany) and IRSN (France) and funded by the EC. The objective is to assess the implementation of the individual monitoring requirements in EU Member States based on in-vivo measurements and to have an overview of the performance of in-vivo measurements using whole body counters. EIVIC2020 has registered participants from 36 laboratories from 21 countries + EC + IAEA.

  • This intercomparison was organised within WG2. The preliminary results were presented at the participant's meeting which took place at the AM2016 in Milano on 10th February 2016. Below you can find all presentations from the participant's meeting.

  • This intercomparison was organised within WG12. The results were presented at International Conference on the Individual Monitoring of Ionizing Radiation, Brugge, April 2015.

  • This intercomparison was a joint collaboration between WG7 and WG6.

  • This intercomparison was organised within WG2. A participant meeting to present the results of the EURADOS Intercomparison 2012 for whole body neutron dosemeters was organised during the Neutron and Ion Dosimetry Symposium NEUDOS12, in Aix-en-Provence, France. A general overview on intercomparisons for neutrons and a description of the IC2012n action was given, as well as an overview on standards and guidelines available for personnel neutron dosimetry. The irradiations performed and the results of the whole body neutron dosemeter intercomparisons were also presented.
