We are at a critical time in the history of radiation protection dosimetry. The paradigm shift away from the more-than-30-years-old stylized human models is imminent with the development of 30 voxel-based tomographic models in recent years that are based on medical images. Recently, researchers gathered at an international conference to share the latest work and to establish collaborations. This invited review paper introduces various types of modelling and summarizes the latest developments including a Consortium on Computational Human Phantoms (CCHP) that is aimed at facilitating intercomparison and sharing of data for radiation protection purposes.
