Dose-effect relation
scroll
Relation between the dose of an organ, part of the
body or the whole body and the resulting biological radiation effect.
Various extrapolation possibilities derived from knowledge gained with
high doses are conceivable for a few millisieverts - the area of interest
for radiation protection purposes. The International Commission on Radiological
Protection assumes for the purposes of radiation protection a linear
relation between the level of the effective dose and the frequency of
late radiation damage.
Dose-effect relationship;
Course of extrapolation possibilities:
A: linear
B: linear-quadratic
C: quadratic with threshold value
