The Latin American Biological Dosimetry Network (LBDNet) was established in 2007 to support radiation protection and emergency response. It outlines its mission, operational framework, and capabilities for biological dosimetry assistance in Latin America.

Area of Science:

  • Radiation protection
  • Biological dosimetry
  • Emergency response

Background:

  • Biological dosimetry is crucial for national radiation protection programs and emergency preparedness.
  • Historical cooperation in biological dosimetry in Latin America predates the network's formal establishment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the foundational elements of the Latin American Biological Dosimetry Network (LBDNet).
  • To detail the network's mission, operational concept, and capabilities for regional biological dosimetry assistance.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the LBDNet foundational document.
  • Description of the network's operational framework, including support request mechanisms and activation processes.
  • Summary of LBDNet's experimental and practical outcomes.
