Radiation Monitoring Overview
Monitoring Exposure. Protecting People.
Radiation monitoring is the systematic measurement, assessment, and surveillance of radiation levels and radioactive contamination. Its purpose is to ensure the protection of workers, the public, and the environment from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation.
Radiation monitoring includes both individual monitoring, which assesses radiation exposure received by occupationally exposed persons using personal dosimeters, and environmental monitoring, which evaluates radiation levels and radioactive materials in environmental media such as air, water, soil, and workplaces. These measurements ensure compliance with regulatory safety and security requirements.
