Annals of the ICRP

Aims & Scope

The International Commission on Radiological Protection was founded in 1928 to advance for the public benefit the science of radiological protection.

The ICRP provides recommendations and guidance on protection against the risks associated with ionising radiation, from artificial sources as widely used in medicine, general industry and nuclear enterprises, and from naturally occurring sources.

These reports and recommendations are published four times each year on behalf of the ICRP as the journal Annals of the ICRP.

Each issue provides in-depth coverage of a specific subject area.
