Organ dose

scroll

The organ dose H_T,R is the product of the organ absorbed dose DT,R averaged over the tissue/organ T generated by the radiation R and the radiation weighting factor W_R.

H_T,R = W_R*D_T,R

If the radiation consists of types and energies with different wR values, the individual values are added. The following applies for the organ dose in this case:
