Annals of the ICRP v. 31, No 1-3, Pergamon, 2001. Corrected Version, May 2002. 511 p
The present report gives dose coefficients for the offspring (embryo, fetus, and newborn child) of female members of the public and female workers following intakes of selected radioisotopes of the 31 elements for which age-dependent biokinetic models are given in Publications 56, 67, 69, and
71. Relevant human and animal data are reviewed. Biokinetic and dosimetric models used for the calculation of dose coefficients for the offspring following either single or continuous maternal intakes of the selected radionuclides are described. The report is concerned solely with doses to the offspring following maternal intakes before or during pregnancy. It covers the doses received in utero and after birth arising from radionuclides transferred across the placenta and the dose received in utero from maternal deposits of radionuclides. Doses to the offspring due to intakes of radionuclides in maternal milk and external irradiation from the mother's body after birth are not considered in this publication. The radiation sensitivity of the offspring is not discussed
