  • Radiation Protection in Nuclear Installations

    Occupational radiological protection Occupational radiological protection includes all radiation protection and monitoring actions in the nuclear installations that ensure the safety of the exposed personnel. In a broader sense, decontamination systems and procedures, as well as the containment and retention of radioactive substances by building structures, systems and components, are also considered. The holistic approach…

    Tumour risk analysis: ENSI publishes scientific paper on calculation models

    Calculations of radiation-induced tumour risks should also take account of uncertainties in the models used. This is the conclusion reached by ENSI radiation protection expert Luana Hafner and physicist Alberto Stabilini in their scientific paper. In a collaboration with epidemiologist Linda Walsh, they compared different risk assessment models.
