Comparison of calculated estimations of individual whole body internal irradiation doses vs data obtained by WBC measurements: Bryansk region of the Russian Federation

The data presented in this paper are the results of comparison of calculated individual accumulated internal whole body dose estimations VS individual dose estimations based on Whole Body Counting (WBC measurements of 137Cs). All of these data are related to the radioactive contaminated territories of Bryansk region. Results of comparison of dose estimations based on the WBC measurements VS dose values, obtained by calculations by radioecological model and individual questionnaires are in good agreement. It is important result of the this work as far as there are a lot of limitations of direct measurements by WBC for a big number of inhabitants in a case of possible large scale radiation accident.
