Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a device for measuring the effective dose. In a preferred embodiment, the device includes a detector located in a cavity accommodated in the periphery of an inner cylinder which is eccentrically mounted in a right cylinder. The diameter of the right cylinder is close to twice the diameter of the eccentric cylinder and the cylinders are driven in rotation to set a rectilinear displacement to the cavity. The device can be used to determine the variation of the absorbed dose rate versus depth.
