GAFCHROMIC FILM AS A FAST VISUAL INDICATOR OF RADIATION EXPOSURE OF FIRST RESPONDERS.
Three types of Gafchromic films have been studied to investigate their potential for use as a visually readable dosemeter for persons acting as first responders in connection with radiological or nuclear emergencies. The two most sensitive film types show a pronounced variation in sensitivity by photon energy and are therefore not suitable for use in cases of unknown exposures. The third film type
