Abstract
The nominal probability coefficients for individual tissues and organs by age and gender are calculated with data used in the ICRP publication 60. The purpose is to calculate the projected number of untimely deaths in a group of patients that has a different age distribution than the general population for the barium meal examination in Japan. These coefficients were designed to give the same overall detriment as those calculated in ICRP 60, which were for the average general population. The nominal probability coefficients and loss of life expectancy by age, gender, and organ are also given. Health Phys. 68(6):827–831; 1995
