Estimation of radiation dose using the ESR signal from teeth
Radiation dose can be estimated by the measurement of ESR (electron spin resonance) signals from the teeth of exposed persons. This method, which facilitates estimation directly from teeth, is useful when dose estimation by other means presents difficulties.
