Download or read book Management of Radioactive Material Safety Programs at Medical Facilities Final Report written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Task Force, comprising eight US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and two Agreement State program staff members, developed the guidance contained in this report. This report describes a systematic approach for effectively managing radiation safety programs at medical facilities. This is accomplished by defining and emphasizing the roles of an institutions̀ executive management, radiation safety committee, and radiation safety officer. Various aspects of program management are discussed and guidance is offered on selecting the radiation safety officer, determining adequate resources for the program, using such contractual services as consultants and service companies, conducting audits, and establishing the roles of authorized users and supervised individuals; NRCs̀ reporting and notification requirements are discussed, and a general description is given of how NRCs̀ licensing, inspection and enforcement programs work.
Download or read book CRC Handbook of Management of Radiation Protection Programs Second Edition written by Kenneth L. Miller and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1992-09-25 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CRC Handbook of Management of Radiation Protection Programs, 2nd Edition, is unique in that it offers practical guidance for managing various aspects of radiation protection programs ranging from the daily operation of a health physics office to the preparation of radiation experts for court appearances as professional witnesses. The book also covers such topics as organization and management of nonionizing radiation safety programs (with special emphasis on laser safety programs) and management of radioactive waste, personnel monitoring programs, radiation accident victims, internal exposure, relative radiotoxicity and radiation therapy patients. Other chapters discuss handling radiation accidents and education and training requirements for radiation protection. Legal aspects covered in the book include the history of radiation court cases, legal implications of record keeping, and preparation for court appearances. CRC Handbook of Management of Radiation Protection Programs, 2nd Edition will be a valuable reference resource for medical and health physicists, industrial hygienists, physicians, nuclear engineers, radiation protection regulators, radiation emergency management agents, radiation safety committees, and managers of facilities using ionizing and nonionizing radiation sources.
Download or read book Radiation in Medicine written by Committee for Review and Evaluation of the Medical Use Program of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-04-08 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does radiation medicine need more regulation or simply better-coordinated regulation? This book addresses this and other questions of critical importance to public health and safety. The issues involved are high on the nation's agenda: the impact of radiation on public safety, the balance between federal and state authority, and the cost-benefit ratio of regulation. Although incidents of misadministration are rare, a case in Pennsylvania resulting in the death of a patient and the inadvertent exposure of others to a high dose of radiation drew attention to issues concerning the regulation of ionizing radiation in medicine and the need to examine current regulatory practices. Written at the request from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), Radiation in Medicine reviews the regulation of ionizing radiation in medicine, focusing on the NRC's Medical Use Program, which governs the use of reactor-generated byproduct materials. The committee recommends immediate action on enforcement and provides longer term proposals for reform of the regulatory system. The volume covers Sources of radiation and their use in medicine. Levels of risk to patients, workers, and the public. Current roles of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, other federal agencies, and states. Criticisms from the regulated community. The committee explores alternative regulatory structures for radiation medicine and explains the rationale for the option it recommends in this volume. Based on extensive research, input from the regulated community, and the collaborative efforts of experts from a range of disciplines, Radiation in Medicine will be an important resource for federal and state policymakers and regulators, health professionals involved in radiation treatment, developers and producers of radiation equipment, insurance providers, and concerned laypersons.

Download or read book Radiation Safety in Nuclear Medicine written by Gopal B. Saha and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition is a fully updated guide to radiation safety practice for nuclear medicine professionals, and assists the nuclear medicine technologists in taking their board certifying examination. The NRC requires the appointment of a radiation safety officer (RSO) or an associate radiation safety officer (ARSO) for different uses of radioactive material. Board certified nuclear medicine technologists are eligible to be RSO and ARSO in specific uses of radioactive material after successfully completing a 40-hr or 200-hr course on radiation safety depending on the type of RAM use. This book covers all subject materials in these courses on radiation safety. This guide provides ready-made, handy information on radiation safety as required in the practice of nuclear medicine, presented in a concise form for easy understanding and quick reference related to a given situation and/or incident. The major change in the new edition of the book is the addition of questions at the end of each chapter, to ensure the comprehension of the material by the examinees taking their certifying board examinations. As mentioned in the first edition, the NRC 10CFR20 for Standards for Radiation Protection and the NRC 10CFR35 for Medical Uses of Radioactive Materials are the primary sources of practical information on radiation safety in nuclear medicine. Much of the information is still valid, but many changes and additions have also been made since, which are fully updated here. This is an ideal reference for nuclear medicine physicians, nuclear medicine technologists, and researchers using radioactive materials.
