ERIDAS, a computer program for rapid calculation of internal doses from measurements of people in an emergency.
In an emergency involving the deliberate or accidental release of radioactive materials, there could potentially be a large number of people who require monitoring for internal contamination. Doses from these measurements will need to be calculated as quickly as possible. Emergency Response Internal Dose Assessment Software (ERIDAS) has been designed for this purpose.
