NKS workshop on IDEA and IMBA

On May, 19th 2015 the board for Nordic Nuclear Safety Research (NKS) of the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority organized a workshop on internal dose assessment. About 25 professionals from all Scandinavian countries participated in this workshop in Stockholm. The focus of the workshop was the application of commercial software such as IMBA and IDEA for internal dose assessment. Nine exercises were given to the participants for evaluation with IMBA. Some of the exercises were evaluated in parallel with IDEA and the different approaches of both software tools were considered, this highlighting some characteristic differences in the approaches of IMBA and IDEA.
