The dose equivalent in soft tissue at an appropriate depth, d, below a specified point on the human body. The soft tissue is ICRU 4-element tissue. The unit of personal [[dose equivalent]] is joule per kilogram (J/kg), and its special name is [[Sievert]] (Sv). The specified point is usually given by the position where the individual dosimeter is worn. For the assessment of [[effective dose]] a depth of 10 mm is recommended, and for the assessment of [[equivalent dose]] to the skin and the lens of the eye, depths of 0.07 mm and 3 mm, respectively, are recommended.
