Interest in standardized dosimetry for radiobiological irradiators has expanded over the last decade. At a symposium held at NIST, “The Importance of Standardization of Dosimetry in Radiobiology”, a set of 12 criteria necessary for adequate irradiation was developed by the authors. Here we report on...
