1. A method for estimating a scattered radiation dose, the method comprising:
providing a scattered radiation model that indicates a spatial distribution of scattered radiation to be expected in a vicinity of a radiation source during a predefined use of the radiation source;
determining, by a mobile electronic device of a user, a position of the mobile electronic device relative to the radiation source;
determining, by the mobile electronic device, at least one dose descriptor of the scattered radiation to be expected according to the use of the radiation source based on the scattered radiation model and the determined position.
