DMC 2000XB Personal Electronic Dosimeter, X-Ray, Gamma, Beta

DMC 2000XB - Personal Electronic Dosimeter - X-Ray, Beta, Gamma

The use of β particle emitters for radiation therapies (treatments of eye tumors, coronary arteries, or inflammatory joint diseases) has significantly increased during recent years, and this has made the use of dedicated β dosimeters essential.

The DMC 2000XB was designed to allow simultaneously deep dose equivalent Hp(10) and shallow dose equivalent Hp(0.07) measurements for X-ray, gamma and beta emissions. Furthermore, it can be used as an operational dosimetry system for all medical risk assessment including radiological exposures. In addition, it has applications in radioactive source production facilities, nuclear power plants and other nuclear facilities.
