dose rate definition
dose rate means, in relation to a place, the rate at which a person or part of a person would receive a dose of ionizing radiation from external radiation if he were at that place being a dose rate at that place averaged over one minute;
dose rate means the dose per unit of time, such as rem per minute (rem/min) and millirem per hour (mrem/hr). See also "Exposure rate"
dose rate means the ambient dose equivalent or the directional dose equivalent, as appropriate, per unit time, measured at the point of interest.”

dose rate means dose received or absorbed by a target per unit time.
dose rate means the equivalent dose of radiation absorbed or emitted during an period, usually measured more or less instantaneously but expressed in terms of μSv.h-1.
dose rate means the amount of dose equivalent per unit time.
dose rate means, in relation to a place, the rate at which a person or part of a person would receive a dose of ionising radiation from external radiation if he were at that place and “instantaneous dose rate” means a dose rate at that place averaged over 1 minute and “time average dose rate” means a dose rate at that place averaged over any 8 hour working period;
dose rate means absorbed dose per unit time, for machines with timers, or monitor unit per unit time for linear accelerators.
