Request determination of a replacement dose

Is it not possible to determine the body dose in accordance with the Radiation Protection Ordinance due to an omitted or incorrect measurement? Then you must apply for a replacement dose to be determined by the competent authority for radiation protection.

If the Radiation Protection Ordinance prescribes this for your facility, you as the person responsible for radiation protection must ensure that the body dose of the persons to be monitored is determined. This is not possible if the measurement is omitted or incorrect. There may be various reasons for the omitted or incorrect measurement. For example, the dosimeter was not returned within the period specified by the measuring centre or the dosimeter cannot be evaluated. In any case, you must apply to the competent authority for radiation protection for a replacement dose.

Responsible department

The regional council in whose district your facility (hospital, practice, company) is located.
