Dose estimates to the developing fetus for these survivors have been assigned in prior dosimetry systems of the Radiation Effects Research Foundation as the dose to the uterine wall within the non-pregnant adult stylized phantom, originally designed for the dosimetry system DS86 and then carried forward in DS02. In a prior study, a new J45 (Japanese 1945) series of high-resolution phantoms of the adult pregnant female at 8 weeks, 15 weeks, 25 weeks, and 38-weeks post-conception was presented. Fetal and maternal organ doses were estimated by computationally exposing the pregnant female phantom series to DS02 free-in-air cumulative photon and neutron fluences at three distances from the hypocenter at both Hiroshima and Nagasaki under idealized frontal (AP) and isotropic (ISO) particle incidence. In this present study, this work was extended using realistic angular fluences (480 directions) from the DS02 system for seven radiation source terms, nine different radiation dose components, and five shielding conditions. In addition, to explore the effects of fetal position within the womb, four new phantoms were created and the same irradiation scenarios were performed. General findings are that the current DS02 fetal dose surrogate overestimates values of fetal organ dose seen in the J45 phantoms towards the cranial end of the fetus, especially in the later stages of pregnancy. For example, for in-open exposures at 1000 m in Hiroshima, the ratio of J45 fetal brain dose to DS02 uterine wall dose is 0.90, 0.82, and 0.70 at 15 weeks, 25 weeks, and 38-weeks, respectively, for total gamma exposures, and are 0.64, 0.44, and 0.37 at these same gestational ages for total neutron exposures. For organs in the abdominal and pelvic regions of the fetus, dose gradients across gestational age flatten and later reverse, so that DS02 fetal dosimetry begins to underestimate values of fetal organ dose as seen in the J45 phantoms. For example, for the same exposure scenario, the ratios of J45 fetal kidney dose to DS02 uterine wall dose are about 1.09 from 15 to 38 weeks for total gamma dose, and are 1.30, 1.56, and 1.75 at 15 weeks, 25 weeks, and 38 weeks, respectively, for the total neutron dose. Results using the new fetal positioning phantoms show this trend reversing for a head-up, breach fetal position. This work supports previous findings that the J45 pregnant female phantom series offers significant opportunities for gestational age-dependent assessment of fetal organ dose without the need to invoke the uterine wall as a fetal organ surrogate.</p>","PeriodicalId":21002,"journal":{"name":"Radiation and Environmental Biophysics","volume":"62 3","pages":"317-329"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9902823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For almost as long, the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has promoted understanding of health and environmental risks of ionising radiation and developed a protection system that enables the safe use of ionising radiation in justified and beneficial practices, providing protection from all sources of radiation. However, we are concerned that a shortage of investment in training, education, research, and infrastructure seen in many sectors and countries may compromise society's ability to properly manage radiation risks, leading to unjustified exposure to or unwarranted fear of radiation, impacting the physical, mental, and social well-being of our peoples. This could unduly limit the potential for research and development in new radiation technologies (healthcare, energy, and the environment) for beneficial purposes. ICRP therefore calls for action to strengthen expertise in radiological protection worldwide through: (1) National governments and funding agencies strengthening resources for radiological protection research allocated by governments and international organisations, (2) National research laboratories and other institutions launching and sustaining long-term research programmes, (3) Universities developing undergraduate and graduate university programmes and making students aware of job opportunities in radiation-related fields, (4) Using plain language when interacting with the public and decision makers about radiological protection, and (5) Fostering general awareness of proper uses of radiation and radiological protection through education and training of information multipliers. The draft call was discussed with international organisations in formal relations with ICRP in October 2022 at the European Radiation Protection Week in Estoril, Portugal, and the final call announced at the 6th International Symposium on the System of Radiological Protection of ICRP in November 2022 in Vancouver, Canada.</p>","PeriodicalId":21002,"journal":{"name":"Radiation and Environmental Biophysics","volume":"62 2","pages":"175-180"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10188412/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9845877","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gross alpha, gross beta, <sup>226</sup>Ra, and <sup>228</sup>Ra activities were < 110-724 mBq/l, < 220-362 mBq/l, < 11-241 mBq/l, and < 32-49 mBq/l, respectively. The results were compared to internationally recommended levels and literature values. Annual effective doses ([Formula: see text]) from <sup>226</sup> and <sup>228</sup>Ra intake were calculated for infants, children, and adults. The highest doses were found for children while the lowest were found for infants. For each water sample, the lifetime risk of radiation-induced cancer (LTR) was calculated for the whole population. All of the LTR values were lower than the value recommended by the World Heath Organisation. It is concluded that there are no significant radiation-related health risks associated with consumption of tap water from the studied region.</p>","PeriodicalId":21002,"journal":{"name":"Radiation and Environmental Biophysics","volume":"62 2","pages":"279-285"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9663133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
