RESRAD-OFFSITE

RESRAD-OFFSITE is a software program developed by RESRAD-OFFSITE that helps to assess the potential radiation risks to individuals and populations, in the event of exposure to radioactive materials or contamination. The tool meets the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) guidelines for evaluating post-dispersal radioactive contamination.

With RESRAD-OFFSITE, users can perform site-specific analyses, evaluate the potential consequences of radioactive releases from a nuclear power plant or other sources, and estimate risk-based cleanup criteria for contaminated areas. The program can also be used to assess contamination risks associated with the decommissioning of nuclear facilities.

The tool allows the user to perform calculations based on several scenarios, including various radiation dose pathways and exposure scenarios. It also includes features such as dose-risk relationships for different age groups and health effects arising from radiation exposure.

The tool's output is presented in a user-friendly format that summarizes the calculated risks and provides recommendations for appropriate protective actions. RESRAD-OFFSITE is a valuable tool for evaluating radiation risks and assessing potential impacts on public health and the environment.
