ISO 2016 All rights reserved vBS ISO 16637:2016ISO 16637:2016(E)IntroductionIn the course of employment, individuals might work with radioactive materials that, und

22、er certain circumstances, could be taken into the body. Protecting workers against risks of incorporated radionuclides requires the monitoring of potential intakes and/or the quantification of actual intakes and exposures. The doses resulting from internal radiation exposure arising from contaminati

23、on by radioactive substances cannot be measured directly. The selection of measures and programmes for this purpose requires decisions concerning methods, techniques, frequencies, etc. for activity measurements and dose assessment. The criteria permitting the evaluation of the necessity of such a mo

24、nitoring programme or for the selection of methods and frequencies of monitoring usually depend upon the legislation, the purpose of the radiation protection programme, the probabilities of potential radionuclide intakes, and the characteristics of the materials handled.For these reasons, ISO standa

25、rds establishing requirements for monitoring programmes (ISO 20553), laboratory requirements (ISO 28218), and dose assessment (ISO 27048) have been developed. These can be applied in a straightforward manner to many workplaces where internal contamination may occur. In order to apply these standards

26、 to staff involved in diagnostic or therapeutic uses of radionuclides in medicine, the short effective half-life of radionuclides commonly used for these purposes and the distance between nuclear medicine department and in vivo counting facilities or radio-analytical laboratories shall be taken into

27、 account. Consequently, guidance on the application of the three International Standards cited above to nuclear medicine staff was requested by a number of countries.This International Standard establishes criteria to determine whether intake monitoring is required for staff exposed to medical radio

28、nuclides as unsealed sources. It also establishes requirements on the design of such monitoring programmes, associated dose assessments, and laboratory requirements. Recommendations of international expert bodies and international experience with the practical application of these recommendations in

29、 radiological protection programmes have been considered in the development of this International Standard. Its application facilitates the exchange of information between authorities, supervisory institutions, and employers. This International Standard is not a substitute for legal requirements.vi

31、ers exposed to the risk of internal contamination via inhalation by the use of radionuclides as unsealed sources in nuclear medicine imaging and therapy departments. It establishes principles for the development of compatible goals and requirements for monitoring programmes and, when adequate, dose

32、assessment. It presents procedures and assumptions for the risk analysis, for the monitoring programmes, and for the standardized interpretation of monitoring data.This International Standard addresses the following items:a) purposes of monitoring and monitoring programmes;b) description of the diff

33、erent categories of monitoring programmes;c) quantitative criteria for conducting monitoring programmes;d) suitable methods for monitoring and criteria for their selection;e) information that has to be collected for the design of a monitoring programme;f) general requirements for monitoring programm

34、es (e.g. detection limits, tolerated uncertainties);g) frequencies of measurements;h) procedures for dose assessment based on reference levels for routine and special monitoring programmes;i) assumptions for the selection of dose-critical parameter values;j) criteria for determining the significance

35、 of individual monitoring results;k) interpretation of workplace monitoring results;l) uncertainties arising from dose assessments and interpretation of bioassays data;m) reporting/documentation;n) quality assurance.This International Standard does not address the following: monitoring and internal
