Dose conversion coefficients for humans after oral administration of urea-14C
Objective To calculate the absorbed doses and conversion coefficients of various organs in humans after oral administration of urea-14C,and to provide a convenient method for evaluating the internal radiation dose caused by ingestion of urea-14C in Chinese population.Methods The Chinese reference human voxel model was imported into the FLUKA software to simulate the absorbed doses to organs under internal exposure to 14C,and to obtain the dose conversion coeffi-cients for oral administration of urea-14C.Results The absorbed dose conversion coefficients for the stomach,colon,blad-der,heart,and muscles were 0.029,0.029,0.32(0.24),0.028,and 0.029 mGy/MBq in negative cases,and 0.079,0.078,0.18(0.15),0.076,and 0.080 mGy/MBq in positive cases.The committed effective dose coefficients were 0.041(0.037)mSv/MBq in negative cases and 0.082(0.081)mSv/MBq in positive cases.Conclusion The dose conversion coefficients obtained in this study can provide important parameters for evaluating the absorbed dose to Chinese population after oral ad-ministration of urea-14C.
