Abstract :
Health physics, the new branch of radiology devoted to protection of personnel, is still in the experimental and evaluation stage. However, it already has a remarkable service record which has been achieved through continuous vigilance and careful co-ordination of analysis and control. This is the tenth of a series of articles developed by the AIEE nucleonics committee; the entire series will be published in pamphlet form upon its completion.
