Values in parentheses are based on dietary intake according to the MLSC survey

Using Spices! model we calculate the dose rate De to a small, tissue-filled cavity in

bone from the ? Ose concentration in mineral bone. Then from geometrical considerations,
the dose rates to the bone marrow Din and endosteal cells Ds are calculated using

conversion factors D/D, = 0.32 and DID, = 0.43, respectively.

These factors are

quoted by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation

and are equivalent to a bone-marrow dose rate of 1.4 mrad/y per pCi 0sig calcium and
an endosteal cell dose rate of 1.9 mrad/y per pCi 90Se ig calcium. These dose rates are
