  20. 결 론 - 현재 상용화 되어 있는 CsI 결정으로는 기존실험들의 검출기 sensitivity와 견줄 수 없슴 . - 적극적으로 CsI 결정 제작과정에 관여해야 할 것임. - 현재 상용화 되는 CsI 결정의 137Cs 내부 방사능은 0.025 - 0.1 Bq/kg 보다 큼 (결정생성 전단계의 CsI powder 측정결과). - 원광(pollucite ore)에서의 137Cs 내부 방사능 오염양은 현재의 측정장치로는 효과적으로 측정하기 힘듬. - 137Cs 내부 방사능을 0.001 Bq/kg(0.027 pCi/kg) 이하로 줄이기 위해서 노력하고 있슴.
