The aim of this study is to compare measurement results of a newly developed prototype of a multiband body-worn distributed-exposimeter (BWDM) with two commercially available personal exposimeters (EXPOM and EME SPY 200).We are currently conducting field measurements in various indoor and outdoor microenvironments in Belgium, Spain, France, Netherlands and Switzerland.Our data will allow the comparison of the measurements of the three different exposimeters and will be informativebetter understanding and interpretation of existing epidemiological research results.
