Question

Why is it so difficult to measure exposure at high photon energies?

Answer 1

It is the one of the measure the intensity of x – ray (or) gamma rays is to measure the amount of ionization they cause in air. * The amount of ionization produced by the radiation is called the exposure. * It is very difficult to measure doses of ionizing radiation directly with the body, organ doses are typically evaluated by measuring doses on representative areas and then performing simulations using models of human body. * These simulations typically provide to conversion factors to obtain
