The present invention relates to a personal radiation dosimeter (1) for estimating an effective dose of an adult human wearing a radio protective garment. The dosimeter comprises a structural support element (2) for attaching to the radio protective garment while worn and at least two ionizing radiation detectors (5,6) having different dose responses as a function of energy and angle of incidence with respect to a reference direction (4). A predetermined linear combination of the dose responses of the detectors corresponds to an estimate in the range of 40% to 160% of the effective dose received by the adult human under each of a plurality of reference exposures that comprise respectively planar photon wave exposures along the reference direction (4), at an angle of 45° and at an angle of 60° with the reference direction, wherein each wave has an energy distribution corresponding to the W-80, W- 60 or N-60 quality of ISO 4037-1. |
