Profile

• Calibration of equipment  for gamma/neutron dosimetry and for alpha/beta surface contamination measurement.
• Evaluation of internal radioactive contamination and equivalent/effective committed dose in humans using Whole Body Counter, Thyroid Activity Counter, and radiochemical analyses of urine.
• Research on dosimetry of mixed radiation and application of radiation in medicine.
• Environment monitoring/radiation protection in Świerk Research Centre and in National Radioactive Waste Depository in Różan (including analyses of environmental samples and regular dosimetric surveys), evaluation of their impact on the environment.
• Research on radiation safety of nuclear/accelerator/radioisotope facilities.
• Research/expert opinions on radiation protection for nuclear power industry and participation in works of national/foreign institutions involved in radiation protection.
• Maintaining dosimetrists on duty (24/7) in Świerk.
• Maintaining and developing standard fields of ionising radiation.
• Maintaining database of exposition/contamination of individual NCBJ employees.
• Accounting and supervision of traffic of radioactive sources/waste in Świerk.
• Trainings in the fields of radiation protection.

Polish Accreditation Centre has accredited the Lab to:

• calibrate dosimetric equipment (AP 070)
• measure internal contamination in humans and evaluate effective committed doses (AB 567)

according to the PN/EN ISO IEC 17025 standard.
