In the MICROSPEC system, NaI response functions and efficiencies are stored in the on-board computer. The acquired spectrum is stripped and used to calculate dose equivalent using internationally accepted energy-dose conversion coefficients. The result is a NaI-based system that provides highly accurate, energy-independent, tissue equivalent dose.

The Bubble Detector is the only neutron dosimeter where the response is independent of dose rate and energy, with zero sensitivity to gamma radiation. Health physicists and others who are especially concerned with thermal neutron dose can take advantage of the simplicity and low cost of thermal Bubble Detectors. The BDT Bubble Detector is preferentially sensitive to thermalized neutrons, with an exclusion ratio of thermal-to-fast neutron response exceeding 10:1.
