Appendix No. 6 to order of Minzdravmedprom (Ministry of Health and Medical Industry), Russia, for number 236 of 11.08.1995 Instructions for completing the “survey maps of individuals exposed to radiation as a result of the Chernobyl disaster

Reference: National Radioation-Epidemiological Registry, Russia

Abstract: “The survey maps of individuals exposed to radiation as a result of the Chernobyl disaster” is meant for people registered in the “National Radioation-Epidemiological Registry” or those living in the contaminated regions of Bryansk, Kaluzh, Orlov and Tuly (contamination degree: 137Cs : over 5 Ci/km2), with diagnosed cancer or other malignancies detected after 26 April, 1986. The “Card” is meant for evaluation, verification, correction and addition (if needed) of data on absorbed doses into the thyroid gland and the whole body due to external and internal exposures.

Keywords: scientific-research institute of radiation hygiene, re-estimation of calculated doses

Abstract: Introduces method of counting modified standard doses of internal exposure. Exposed people’ data are registered in the National Radiation-Epidemiological Registry and St. Petersburg national Research Institute of Radiation Hygiene. Exponential regression of average modified standard doses, of 137Cs deposition density, practically do not depend on the region or the type of settlements. Geometric average standard error of calculation of standard doses of regression dependence is equal to 1.6-1.7. Geometric average standard error of the estimate dose, for the average locality, of the thyroid gland and the entire body of the residents of the given age is 2.0-2.3.
