The IAEA has long been active in the field of high-dose standardization. In cooperation with the Gesellschaft für Umwelt und Gesundheit (GSF), Germany, an International Dose Assurance Service (IDAS) was established based on alanine/ESR dosimetry. This service operates over the range of 100 Gy to 100 kGy and is directed towards industrial radiation processing in IAEA Member States. In complements the IAEA/WHO TLD postal dose intercomparison service for dose assurance in hospital radiotherapy departments. Experience with the alanine high dose service suggests that the alanine dosimeter might provide superior performance to TLD in the therapy dose range. Preliminary test measurements with the participation of GSF/Germany, Istituto Superiore di Sanità/Italy (both providing alanine dosimeters and their evaluation) and IAEA (providing) reference irradiations traceable to BIPM) seems to justify research efforts through an IAEA Coordinated Research Programme (CRP). This CRP, entitled “Therapy Level Dosimetry with the Alanine/ESR System” is presently under set-up. It will include general work common to all assigned/potential contract holders as well as some specific research topics in accordance to individual proposals of each participant.
