1. The escaping energy is counted in kerma, but not in absorbed dose . 2. Plasma distribution of the absorbed dose conformed to a one-compartment open model. 3. Stevens'absorbed dose was almost entirely based on the Pu-238 in his system. 4. For low-energy photons, kerma is numerically approximately the same as absorbed dose . 5. The CTDI can be used in conjunction with patient size to estimate the absorbed dose . 6. At this time the rad and rem were introduced for absorbed dose and RBE-weighted dose respectively. 7. These effects are compared to the physical quantity absorbed dose measured by the unit gray ( Gy ). 8. These are specifically designed to record and indicate the absorbed dose ( or derived dosimetric index ) received. 9. Bone marrow makes up 4 % of the body mass, so the whole-body absorbed dose would be 0.04 Gy. 10. Radiotherapy treatments are typically prescribed in terms of the local absorbed dose , which might be 60 Gy or higher.
