Abstract
A portable and wearable radiation dosimeter has a wearable housing. There is an optically stimulated luminescent (OSL) radiation sensing element removably mounted in the wearable housing so that the OSL radiation sensing element can be removed and read by an external OSL reader. There is also a fluorescent nuclear track detector (FNTD) radiation sensing element removably mounted in the wearable housing so that the FNTD radiation sensing element can be removed and read by an external FNTD reader. At least one on-board reader for at least one of the OSL and FNTD radiation sensing element for determining information about the radiation exposure of the sensing element while the sensor remains mounted in the housing, preferably using a different mode of reading than either OSL or FNTD.
