摘要:The doses for the overexposed patients were estimated by the measurement result of specific activity of 24 Na in blood. The present method is almost based on documents of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The neutron energy spectrum obtained using the ANISN code (Multigroup One-Dimensional Discrete Ordinates Transport Code System with Anisotropic Scattering) was assumed. The values in ICRP Publication 74 were applied for the doses in each organ per unit neutron fluence. Gamma-ray dose was indirectly estimated based on (a) the result of environmental monitoring around the accident site and (b) a graph in IAEA manual, which gives the kerma ratio of neutrons and γ-rays as a function of the critical volume or the atomic ratio of hydrogen to 235 U. The estimated neutron doses were 5.4 Gy for patient A, 2.9 Gy for patient B and 0.81 Gy for patient C. The estimated γ-ray doses were 8.5 or 13 Gy for patient A, 4.5 or 6.9 Gy for patient B, and 1.3 or 2.0 Gy for patient C.
