NOTE

The annual dose limit for the dosimeter is dependent of the shielding factor of the lead apron,
as well as other radiation protection used. The more protection the higher the limit can be for
the same effective dose to the user. The annual dose limit may or may not be chosen to reflect
the legal dose limit where it is used. It could reflect the legal limit or for example a lower
target for the clinical user case. These and other considerations need to be counted for when
choosing the annual dose limit.
