Assume that a person has an intake of P-32, and that approximately 74 kBq gets uniformly distributed in his liver. The average energy of beta particles is E=0.57 MeV, and the mass of the liver is (1.8+LDSN)kg. 1. Calculate the effective elimination constant E. 2. What is the daily dose rate to the liver from this intake? 3. Calculate the dose rate in the liver 2 months (60 days) after the initial distribution of P-32. 4. Compute the committed dose to the liver (for 60 months). Assume that a person has an intake of P-32, and that approximately 74 kBq gets uniformly distributed in his liver.
