UNSCEAR 2020/2021 Report (6/8): Comparison with Direct Measurements_Figure

A comparison has been made between estimated doses in the UNSCEAR 2020/2021 Report and measured doses through thyroid measurements conducted in Fukushima Prefecture immediately after the accident at Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO)'s Fukushima Daiichi NPS. Additionally, a comparison with the results of the WBC measurements of Cs-134 and Cs-137 has also been made.

As shown in the Table above, these measured data and estimates by the UNSCEAR are almost the same.
