AB  - Introduction
Calibration laboratories and industrial enterprises involved in radiation protection dosimetry face significant
challenges following the recent update of the ISO 4037 in conjunction with the new radiation protection
quantities introduced in ICRU Report 95, the gaps and contradictions in the standards that set photon
dosimeter requirements, and the lack of standards for upcoming and new technologies.
Methods
The European Partnership Project 23NRM07 GuideRadPROS launched in June 2023 will address these issues
over the next three years. The project objectives are:
1. to develop harmonized X-ray spectrometry in accordance with the ISO 4037 standard series, evaluate
discrepancies between measured and calculated half value layer of X-ray spectra, and produce data to update
requirements for reference fields.
2. to develop guidance and training material for the calibration of dosimeters.
3. to produce guidance on validated procedures for harmonized type testing based on IEC standards.
4. to investigate new and upcoming technologies and assess future standardization needs and to produce a
guidance document for the implementation of the new operational quantities of ICRU Report 95 into standards
and regulations.
5. to collaborate with ISO and IEC and users of their dosimetry standards to ensure that project outputs align
with their needs.
Results and Conclusions
GuideRadPROS will improve the confidence in radiation protection dosimetry, both by promoting the
implementation of the ISO 4037 standard series and by assessing the impact of the operational quantities of
the ICRU Report 95 on daily measurements in radiation protection. Furthermore, the outcome of this project will
lead to improved and comparable procedures in calibration and type testing within Europe
