[edit] A

A pair of inscrutable mathematical formulae as the main body of the article isn't really approriaet for a general knowledge encyclopedia. This needs somebody to translate it into plainer English. -- Whpq 21:04, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

I would like to see a statement of whether the "two definitions" (rate of particles per surface area and sum of path lengths per volume) are equivalent or distinct. --67.249.58.190 (talk) 21:26, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Definition?

So is it number per square meter or joules per square meter? There's a big difference when you're talking about radiation fields. HEL (talk) 20:07, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Medical Article?

I don't see where this article should contain medical information. Of course fluence is important in radiooncology as well as in many other fields ... I would suggest to remove the medical tag until information specifically related to medicine is added. Donik (talk) 14:43, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

That would be fine with me; alternatively, I've tagged it as low-importance to WPMED. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:30, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
