16. Advancing Radiation Protection: IAEA Approach Towards Stakeholder Engagement in the Decision on Adoption of ICRU Report 95

Dr Michael Hajek (International Atomic Energy Agency)

6/8/26, 9:30 AM

Basic concepts and principles in dosimetry

Invited Presentation

Operational quantities are designed for measuring external exposure to ionising radiation, providing conservative estimates of protection quantities. The International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU) Report 95, published jointly with the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) in 2020, proposes an alternative approach to the current definition of...

160. Radiation dose assessment in pediatric interventional cardiology procedures

Hugo Schelin (Federal University of Technology - Parana)

6/9/26, 9:00 AM

Dosimetry and radiation protection in medicine and biology

Invited Presentation

Pediatric interventional cardiology procedures are widely performed for both the diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart diseases. Although these procedures present lower complication rates compared with conventional surgery, they may involve significant exposure to ionizing radiation. In this context, radiation protection is particularly relevant, as children are more radiosensitive and...

153. Reference sites for aerial unmanned radiometric survey

Václav Štěpán (Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering)

6/10/26, 9:00 AM

Environmental dosimetry and monitoring

Invited Presentation

Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are increasingly used in a wide range of domains, including radiation monitoring in the environment for geological as well as emergency response application. Advances in battery technology, precise positioning systems, and sensor performance, together with the development of regulatory frameworks facilitating beyond visual line-of-sight operations, have made UAS...

217. Challenges of Radiation Dosimetry in Medicine: Establishment of Diagnostic Reference Levels and Dose Tracking in Modern Medical Imaging

Abdelmoneim Sulieman (King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Resarch Centre)

6/11/26, 9:00 AM

Dosimetry and radiation protection in medicine and biology

Invited Presentation

Exposure to ionizing radiation for medical purposes accounts for more than 98% of man-made radiation exposure. The rapid expansion of medical imaging has significantly increased population radiation doses, with medical procedures contributing approximately 50% of the annual per-capita radiation exposure, compared with about 15% in the 1980s. Most medical imaging procedures involve localized or...
