Abstract
Scattered radiation has non-intuitive properties. A signalling system () is presented which provides a perceptible signal () being indicative of a predicted or measured spatial distribution of scattered radiation. An embodiment provides for easy assessment of the individual risk of scattered radiation exposure for personnel working in an environment exposed to scattered radiation. A method for predicting a distribution of scattered radiation takes into account at least one object related parameter () and at least one radiation related parameter () and, in response hereto, predicts a distribution of scattered radiation.
