Notes:

(1) Statistical process 1 (Accumulation) does not change units. It is recommended to use another parameter without the word "time-integrated" in its name and accumulation in PDT.

(2) Conversion factor between "Specific Activity Concentration" (14) and "Air Concentration" (10) is "Mass Density" [kg m-3].

(3) Parameters from 10 onward may be used in combination with Product Definition Templates 4.40 - 4.43 and Common Code Table C-14 (Code table 4.230) to represent anty type of radioistope.
