=== from [[ICRP Publication 130]], 2015 ===
The factor by which the equivalent dose to an organ or tissue T is weighted to represent the relative contribution of that organ or tissue to overall radiation detriment from stochastic effects. It is defined such that:<math>\sum\limits_T w_T = 1</math>
=== from [[ICRP Publication 127]], 2014 ===
The factor by which the equivalent dose in a tissue or organ T is weighted to represent the relative contribution of that tissue or organ to the total health detriment resulting from uniform irradiation of the body. It is weighted such that:<math>\sum\limits_T w_T = 1</math>
