TLD whole-body dosimetry monitoring remains one of the most widely accepted radiation monitoring methods worldwide. ProxDose™ provides TLD monitoring programs designed for durability, regulatory acceptance, and consistent dose tracking across standard wear periods. TLD technology is especially well-suited for established radiation safety programs that value historical continuity and long-term trend analysis.
Thermoluminescent dosimeters trap radiation energy within a crystal lattice. During laboratory analysis, the dosimeter is heated, releasing the stored energy as light. The emitted light is proportional to the absorbed dose and is converted into a precise measurement.
This process makes TLD badges highly reliable for cumulative dose monitoring.

TLD is a long-established, widely accepted technology with extensive historical data. Many organizations choose TLD to maintain continuity with legacy programs or existing regulatory documentation.
Depending on badge configuration, TLD badges can measure X-ray, beta, gamma, and neutron radiation.
No. TLD readout releases the stored signal during analysis, so the badge cannot be re-read. However, TLD remains extremely reliable for cumulative dose measurement.
Yes. TLD badges are highly durable and resistant to moisture and environmental stress, making them suitable for industrial, research, and clinical settings.
Yes. ProxDose™ provides refurbished readers, spare parts, calibration support, and technical expertise to help extend the life of Panasonic® TLD systems.
TLD monitoring programs are available on monthly, quarterly, or annual wear schedules.
