New ICRP Draft Report for consultation

Preventing Accidental Exposures from New External Beam Radiation Therapy Technologies - New ICRP Draft Report

The work of the Task Group formed by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) to address “Preventing Accidental Exposures from New External Beam Radiation Therapy Technologies” is nearing completion. This draft has been posted in the ICRP site for public consultation. Because of the nature of the report, the Commission has decided on this occasion to use an accelerated consultation and production process. Therefore, the consultation period will be for 2 months only, instead of the usual 3 months. The comments must be entered on the ICRP’s consultation page no later than Friday 24 April, 2009 in order for the ICRP to be able to take them into account in the final report.
