Automation of UNIDOS “Dosemeter” using personal computer (PC) is discussed in this paper.In order to save time and eliminate human operation errors during the radiation dosimetry, suitable software, using LabVIEW™ graphical programming language, was written to automate and facilitate the processes of measurements, analysis and data storage.The software calculates the calibration factor of the ionization chamber in terms of air kerma or absorbed dose to water according to IAEA dosimetry protocols. It also has the ability to print a calibration certificate.The obtained results using this software are found to be more reliable and flexible than those obtained by manual methods previously employed.Using LabVIEW™ as a development tool is extremely convenient to make things easier when software modifications and improvements are needed.
