Committed effective dose equivalent (CEDE)

As defined in Title 10, Section 20.1003, of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 20.1003), the CEDE (H_E,50) is the sum of the products of the committed dose equivalents for each of the body organs or tissues that are irradiated multiplied by the weighting factors (W_T) applicable to each of those organs or tissues (H_E,50 = ΣW_TH_T.50).
