Each of the subcommittees of the CIRMS Science and Technology Committee has prepared a series of Measurement Program Descriptions (MPDs) pertinent to their area of expertise. These were arrived at through dialogue at CIRMS meetings and workshops. The MPDs are designated by letter apropos to subcommittee areas of interest:
B Public and Environmental Protection
C Occupational Radiation Protection
D Industrial Applications and Materials Effects
Numbers are assigned to MDPs as they evolved with the last digit indicating the latest revision of an existing MPD with its first issuance starting at zero. MPDs tend to be living working documents that are changed by the subcommittees of the CIRMS Science and Technology Committee as some aspects are completed and others perceived as in need of attention. MPD A.7.3, for example, is a seventh MPD generated by the Medical Applications subcommittee in its fourth revision. One or two page MPDs for these various areas are presented below.
