Deep-dose equivalent (DDE) is a measure used in radiation protection to assess the dose of ionizing radiation received by a person, specifically focusing on the exposure to the whole body. It is defined as the dose delivered to a tissue at a depth of 1 centimeter (1 cm) or, in some contexts, at the depth where the absorbed dose is assessed in terms of its biological effect.
