OIR Data viewer download page for link to a zip file. The OIR Data Viewer software provides an access to the dataset of the electronic annex accompanying ICRP Publication 134 "Occupational Intake of Radionuclides: Part 2" (OIR Part 2), ICRP Publication 137 "Occupational Intake of Radionuclides: Part 3" (OIR Part 3), and ICRP Publication 141 "Occupational Intake of Radionuclides: Part 4" (OIR Part 4). The dataset was calculated for the Reference Worker and includes values of dose per intake coefficients, dose per content functions, and reference bioassay functions. Data for intake by inhalation, ingestion and for direct uptake to the blood are provided.
Rtoolbox (radiation toolbox) The Radiological Toolbox software developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) for U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is designed to provide electronic access to the vast and varied data that underlies the field of radiation protection. These data represent physical, chemical, anatomical, physiological, and mathematical parameters detailed in various handbooks which a health physicist might consult while in his office.
