Abstract:
With the widespread application of ionizing radiation in many industries and the construction of nuclear power plants, the potentials for nuclear accidents is also increasing. In the event of a nuclear accident, rapid classification of a large population is generally involved, so accurate estimation of the radiation dose to the exposed population is the primary task of nuclear emergency response. Based on this need, World Health Organization and International Atomic Energy Agency have each established a worldwide network of biological dosimetry laboratories. In addition, regional networks of biological dosimetry laboratories have been established in the European Union, North America, Latin America and Asia. Based on the long-term organization of national training and assessment of biological dose estimation technology, China will also establish its own network of biological dosimetry laboratories in the future to cope with the emergency disposal needs of potential nuclear accidents. In this paper, the international biodosimetry network and related work will be reviewed, and the idea of establishing biodosimetry laboratory network in China will be elaborated.
