What Does EDR Stand For?
EDR stands for Equivalent Direct Radiation
EDR, or Equivalent Direct Radiation, refers to a measurement used in radiation physics to quantify the amount of radiation exposure that a person or object would receive from a direct source of radiation. It takes into account various factors, such as energy levels and exposure time, to provide a standardized representation of potential biological effects. EDR is essential for ensuring safety in environments where radiation is present, guiding proper protective measures and compliance with health regulations.
