La CIPR [Commission Internationale de Protection Radiologique] retient, sur un plan conceptuel, l’idée de l’utilisation de limites de risque pour les expositions potentielles (c’est-à-dire celles qui peuvent, pour une installation nucléaire, résulter de situations incidentelles ou accidentelles) de façon analogue aux limites de dose applicables en fonctionnement normal, sur la base de probabilités égales d’effets dangereux pour un individu, d’une part, en situation incidentelle ou accidentelle et, d’autre part, en fonctionnement normal. Cela revient, dans le domaine des effets stochastiques des rayonnements ionisants qui sont pratiquement les seuls qui puissent concerner des personnes du public, à pondérer les doses pouvant être reçues par un individu lors des différentes situations accidentelles par les probabilités annuelles estimées de ces situations. 1, record 1, French, - limitation%20de%20risque
