A dosimeter is an instrument that accurately measures the dose intake of external electromagnetic radiation.
It is usually worn by the individual being monitored when in use as a health meter and consists of a radioisotope reader that emits beta particles (like those emitted by radioactive material).
While some are used to measure the amount of radiation exposure to the skin by measuring skin plaque levels, most are used in clinical settings such as monitoring and treatment of patients with chronic illness or those undergoing surgery.
When using this type of dosimeter, they can monitor a patient's exposure to x-rays to determine how much of their tissue they have been exposed to.
This helps the radiologist evaluates the risk of cancer in the areas of concern.
The second type is the wristwatch, which is worn on the arm or the upper part of the wrist.Although dosimeters were initially only used for the medical field, they are now being widely used by other industries.
