The factor , <math>w_T</math>, 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, stochastic health detriment resulting from uniform irradiation of the body. It is weighted such that:[[File:sumwT1.PNG|none|100px]] <div style='text-align: center;'><math>/sigma CTDI_{100w} \sum\limits_T w_T = \frac{1}{3}CTDI_{100}^{central} + \frac{2}{3}CTDI_{100}^{peripheral}</math></div>
=== from [[ICRP Publication 139]], 2018 ===
A 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>[[File:sumwT1.PNG|none|100px]]
=== from [[ICRP Publication 133]], 2016 ===
=== 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>[[File:sumwT1.PNG|none|100px]]
=== 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>[[File:sumwT1.PNG|none|100px]]
=== from [[ICRP Publication 119]], 2012 ===
=== from [[ICRP Publication 116]], 2010 ===
The factor by which the equivalent dose in 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>[[File:sumwT1.PNG|none|100px]]
=== from [[ICRP Publication 103]], 2007 & [[ICRP Publication 110]], 2008 & [[ICRP Publication 118]], 2012 ===
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:[[File:sumwT1.PNG|none|100px]]<math> \sum\limits_T w_T = 1</math>
