Dose and dose rate con-cepts were defined in order to quantify the effects of ionising radiation to human beings. In the routine of radiation protection on sites or in laboratories, where radia-tion fields could exist, there is individual monitoring and/or area monitoring required. Berthold provides several products for area monitoring in gamma and neutron radiation fields. These products cover a wide range of radiation levels or energy ranges. Our product specialists will be available with their support for special appli-cations.
