Deep dose equivalent definition

Deep dose equivalent or “Hd” means the dose equiva- lent at a tissue depth of one centimeter (1000 mg/cm2) and applies to external whole body exposure.
Deep dose equivalent or "Hd" means the dose equivalent at a tissue depth of 1 centimeter (1000 milligrams per square centimeter) from external whole-body exposure.
Deep dose equivalent. (H[d]) means the dose equivalent at a tissue depth of 1 centimeter (1,000 milligrams per square centimeter) from external whole-body exposure.
