Application of dose constraint in Hungary
Abstract
The purpose of radiation protection is to protect against ionizing electromagnetic and charged particle radiation. The main goal is to eliminate deterministic effects and to ensure that stochastic effects do not exceed the socially accepted risks of other occupations. In this article, I will briefly present the 3 principles of radiation protection, justification, optimisation, and limitation. After a brief overview, I will show with the principle of limitation in more detail. I am presenting recommendations and regulations for dose limits and dose constraints, with a little historical review. We can track how the radiation protection recommendations have evolved with the changing of the recommendations.
