Our Service Charter outlines what ARPANSA is and what it does, the standards of service you can expect from us and how you can help us improve our service.
ARPANSA conducts a commercial personal radiation monitoring service. Our monitors are used by workers in the medical, dentistry, chiropractic, industrial and mining fields to track exposure to ionising radiation.
ARPANSA calibrates instruments used to measure ionising and non-ionising radiation. Calibrations are traceable to appropriate Australian and international standards.
ARPANSA's radioanalytical laboratory provides radioactivity testing of food samples and can test other types of samples by arrangement.
Data from an Australia wide network of data loggers is available as UV-Index values and graphs for major Australian cities for the current day.
This Guide provides information about personal UV protection and assists consumers to locate suppliers of products that claim to offer protection against solar ultraviolet radiation.
ARPANSA maintains Australian standards of radiation exposure and absorbed dose. These standards are passed on to Australian radiotherapy centres by the calibration of reference dosemeters.
ARPANSA's scientific experts provide advice to the community and industry on many aspects of radiation protection and safety. Contact us if you can't find the information you need on this website.
The magnetic field meter is a hand held device with a digital display that reads in units of milligauss (mG). The meter is used for measuring magnetic fields generated by the passage of mains electricity.
The Australian National Diagnostic Reference Level Survey will gather individual practice data that will be collated and used to establish National Diagnostic Reference Levels for common diagnostic imaging procedures.
The Australian National Radiation Dose Register was established to collect, store, manage and disseminate records of radiation doses received by uranium mining and milling industry workers in the course of their employment in a centralised database.
