OBJECTIVE: Development of methodology for reconstruction of individualized exposure doses for persons residing atradioactively contaminated after Chornobyl accident territories.Materials and methods of research. The methodology is based on the data of radio-ecological (ground, meal) anddosimetric (WBC measurements) monitoring held in Ukraine in 1986-2013, the results of which are saved in databases of Central Ecological and Dosimetric Register of Radiation Protection Laboratory of NRCRM. It is presentedfour levels of individualization of exposure doses. Each subsequent level of the model is based on the previous oneand takes into account additional parameters, and as a result a model of the next level comprises more number ofexposure situations and provides more accurate estimates. Using the methodology it is necessary to select a modelof such level that enables to solve in the best way the assignments posed before a researcher. For the population ofradioactively contaminated territories, two main ways of exposure are considered: (a) external gamma-exposurefrom radionuclides in the ground, and (b) internal exposure from consumption of radioactively contaminated meal.The dose is evaluated from all the main radionuclides of radioactive accident deposition, and in case of internalexposure after 1986 - only from radio-isotopes of cesium (134Cs and 137Cs).RESULTS: Individualized doses are evaluated for different age groups of population residing in 10 raions of the mostcontaminated after Chornobyl accident Oblasts of Ukraine: Zhytomyr, Kyiv, Rivne and Chernihiv Oblasts. Dose esti-mates are presented weighted by the number of residents in settlements of specific raions. Among them are: thedose for 1986, doses accumulated during the first 15 years after the accident (1986-2000), and during the periodof 32 years after the accident (1986-2017).CONCLUSIONS: Average raion dose reconstructed for adult residents of the most radioactively contaminatedNarodychy Raion of Zhytomyr Oblast in 1986 was 18 mSv, and accumulated during the whole period after the acci-dent was 51 mSv. The lowest doses among abovementioned 10 raions were obtained by persons residing at the ter-ritory of Kozelets and Ripky Raions of Chernihiv Oblast. Average dose for them in 1986 constituted 1.3 and 1.7 mSv,and the one accumulated during 32 years was 6.1 and 6.2, respectively.
