For individuals working in radioactive environments, detecting potential contamination is of utmost importance, as it can jeopardize their health and lead to the spread of contamination outside controlled areas. Therefore, it is essential for every nuclear center or laboratory handling radioactive materials to be equipped with a device for identifying these substances. The Whole Body Monitor, internationally known as a Whole Body Counter, is highly effective in detecting surface contamination from radioactive materials. The type of detector used in the Whole Body Contamination Monitor (WBCM) determines the device’s specific application.
:This device has extensive applications in various environments due to its very high sensitivity to α, β, and γ radiation
