The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (ATS FoC) provides dosimetry analysis to help organizations protect employees and maintain compliance by accurately measuring occupational radiation exposure. We offer beta, gamma, and neutron dosimetry for a wide range of workplaces. Our program includes issuing dosimeters, scheduled collection, dose analysis, and maintaining exposure records to ensure regulatory compliance.
How Does Personal Dosimetry Measure Radiation Exposure?
Each worker wears a dosimeter containing material that responds to ionizing radiation. Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) store radiation energy and release it as light during analysis, indicating the dose received. CR-39 dosimeters record neutron interactions as microscopic tracks in plastic, which analysts etch and count. These readings are converted into dose values by radiation type and body region, then compared to regulatory limits, such as those in 10 CFR Part 20. Consistent, accurate readings help identify exposure trends early, supporting compliance.
Our Dosimetry Analysis Services
We support research hospitals, scientific facilities, medical, dental, chiropractic, and veterinary imaging clinics, as well as mining, oil, and gas operations. Our dosimetry options include:
- Beta, gamma, and neutron TLD and CR-39 dosimeters for whole-body monitoring
- TLD ring dosimeters for extremity monitoring
- Reusable dosimeters that can be read on demand
Each program is tailored to your site’s radiation sources, workforce size, and reporting requirements, ensuring straightforward monitoring for your safety team without disrupting daily operations.
What Is Included in a Dosimetry Report?
Our reports are clear and support your radiation safety officer while facilitating regulatory review. A typical report includes:
- Participant identification and monitoring period
- Dose results by radiation type and body region
- Cumulative dose totals for comparison against dose limits
- Flagged readings that may require follow-up
These records provide a documented, auditable exposure history for each monitored employee. This supports compliance during inspections and reassures employees that their safety is monitored closely.
