Abstract

The problem of post-Chernobyl dosimetry is unique in its complexity in the history of radiation medicine and radiation protection. This is because the early experience of mass exposure of people (bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Windscale and South-Ural accidents, exposure of inhabitants of Nevada in the United States of America, the Semipalatinsk area in the former USSR, the Marshall Islands, and the Goiånia accident in Brazil, and others) differed both in the much simpler structure of the irradiation source and in the number and characteristics of exposed persons. It is obvious that post-Chernobyl dosimetry, both as an independent problem, and as a tool for epidemiological studies, requires significant expertise and economic and technical expenditures. Extensive and deep research has been carried out in Ukraine for the past 10 years. This article reviews the main results of these studies.

对切尔诺贝利事故对健康影响国际方案试点项目的剂量学支助:主要成果和问题。

切尔诺贝利事故后的剂量学问题在辐射医学和辐射防护史上具有独特的复杂性。这是因为早期人类大规模受照的经验(广岛和长崎原子弹爆炸、温斯克尔和南乌拉尔事故、美利坚合众国内华达州居民受照、前苏联塞米巴拉金斯克地区、马绍尔群岛和巴西戈伊拉尼亚事故等)的不同之处在于辐照源的结构简单得多，受照人员的数量和特征也不同。显然，切尔诺贝利事故后的剂量测定，无论是作为一个独立的问题，还是作为流行病学研究的工具，都需要大量的专门知识以及经济和技术开支。过去十年来，在乌克兰进行了广泛而深入的研究。本文综述了这些研究的主要结果。
