This treatise examines the ICRP's new respiratory tract model and its implementation into G scENMOD, a program that facilitates internal dosimetric calculation for the body. The inclusion of the ICRP66 model into G scENMOD improves the radiation dose estimates to the respiratory tract. The accuracy of this implementation was confirmed by validating G scENMOD's output against results published in ICRP66.
