Dutch Guidance for RP of the eye lens

In July 2016, the NCS (Nederlandse Commissie voor Stralingsdosimetrie) set up a subcommittee to produce NCS Report 31 Guidelines for Radiation Protection and Dosimetry of the Eye Lens, partly in the light of the stricter regulations regarding exposure of the eye lens. The report supports RPEs in the interpretation of the legal requirements with respect to the eye lens and describes the exposure conditions for the most relevant worker groups. The recommendations provided in this report concern an interpretation of the appropriate dosimetry, suggest protection measures for the different worker groups and guidelines for implementation of medical surveillance.
