Which dosimeter type might be noted in a personnel radiation monitor report?

The dosimeter type noted in a personnel radiation monitor report is typically one that is used specifically for measuring individual radiation exposure over time, making it essential for safety in environments where radiation is present.

Film badges, thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs), and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimeters are all types of personal dosimeters designed to track the amount of ionizing radiation a person has been exposed to. These devices work by accumulating a measurable dose of radiation, which can then be read and reported, allowing for effective monitoring and compliance with safety standards in occupational settings.

On the other hand, devices such as a Geiger counter, ultrasonic monitor, and thermal camera serve different purposes. A Geiger counter is primarily used to detect and measure radiation levels in an environment but does not provide a personal dose record. Ultrasonic monitors measure sound waves and are unrelated to radiation monitoring, while thermal cameras detect infrared radiation and measure temperature rather than ionizing radiation exposure. Thus, these devices would not be included in a personnel radiation monitor report focused on individual dosimetry.
