Summary

During nuclear or radiological emergency, the need to quickly monitor a very large number of people is actual, so there is a need for fast and robust methods to determine radionuclides in bioassay samples. A simple method to project and adapt routinary measurement techniques for a mass monitoring of internal contamination based on the concept of “minimum detectable dose” has been developed and applied to Americium and Curium isotopes.
