Abstract
Abstract An apparatus for housing radiation measuring material. First and second members having generally flat and opposing surfaces are provided, the members being joined with their surfaces in spaced relationship. The first surface has a plurality of circular recessed areas. The second surface has a plurality of recessed areas positionally aligned with the plurality of recessed areas in the first surface. A generally flat insert member is provided, the insert member proportioned to removably fit between the surfaces. The insert member has a plurality of circular apertures positionally aligned with the recessed areas, the apertures being adapted to removably receive and retain dosimetry discs. The recessed areas in the first and second surfaces are adapted to removably receive filter elements. The apparatus can be used for housing many of the various types of commercially available radiation measuring material.
