Personal Dosimetry (radiation badges) - Approved dosimetry services

Approved dosimetry services

DD has teamed up with Landauer Europe, a subsidiary or LANDAUER Inc., the worldleader in passive personal dosimetry services, who currently monitor more than 1.8 million people globally using their Luxel+ Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) technology.

The Luxel+ dosemeter measures exposure to X-radiation and is, therefore, suitable for the dental radiography environment. They ensure accurate and reliable personnel monitoring and precise dose measurements in any environment where there is potential exposure to ionising radiations.

LANDAUER EUROPE provides radiation dosimetry services to hospitals, medical and dental practices, universities, national laboratories, and other industries in which radiation poses a potential threat to employees. The service includes the manufacture of various types of radiation detectors (OSL, TLD and CR-39), the distribution and collection of dosemeters to and from clients, the analysis, reporting and record keeping of personal doses.
