Table 3.

Conversion coefficients from exposure rate to the organ dose rate and their estimated uncertainties (Kryuchkov et al. 2009).

Target organ	Conversion coefficients (mGy h⁻¹ per mR h⁻¹) for work locations at the ChNPP
	On the roofs of the ChNPP			All other locations

	Distribution type	AM or GM	SD or GSD	Distribution type	AM	SD
Bone marrow	Normal^a	0.0067	0.0006	Normal^a	0.0063	0.0006
Thyroid	Lognormal^b	0.0075	1.3	Normal^a	0.0070	0.0014

Arithmetic mean (AM) and standard deviation (SD) are shown for the normal distribution.

Geometric mean (GM) and geometric standard deviation (GSD) are shown for the lognormal distribution.
