18.0 w88 slot online Monitoring

Personal monitoring is required for the persons who are likely to receive a dose in excess w88 slot online UNR's administrative limits or 10% of state occupational dose limits.

18.1 How to Obtain a w88 slot online

Anyone who received radiation safety training and who is likely to receive 10% of the state occupational dose limits may request personal monitoring. The requesting w88 slot online must complete the dosimeter request form and send it to EH&S. The dosimeter request form is available from the EH&S web page and office. Dosimeter delivery may take one week to two weeks from receipt of dosimeter request form.

NOTE: Those persons wishing to provide dosimetry to their students for class or w88 slot online activities must make special arrangements with EH&S.

18.2 Personal w88 slot online Use Procedure

1. Dosimeters w88 slot online worn ONLY by persons to whom they are issued. They must NOT be loaned to another person, nor used for area monitoring. (Area monitoring is available from EH&S).
2. The whole body w88 slot online worn in the central chest region.
3. Ring or wrist dosimeters are issued to persons who use a high energy beta source. Ring dosimeters should be worn on the finger which is nearest the w88 slot online source, usually the index finger, with the sensitive portion of the badge toward the w88 slot online source.
4. Wear the badge whenever working with or around w88 slot online sources. Do not wear a dosimeter when undergoing medical or dental diagnosis or therapy, since your nonoccupational dose is not regulated by the State w88 slot online Control Program Office, and is not to be included as part of your dosimetry results.
5. Use care when leaving the lab to place the dosimeter on the rack located in your lab so that dosimeters are not left in w88 slot online areas such as an accelerator target room. If a dosimeter is exposed in this manner, the dosimeter must be changed without delay since the dose should not be ascribed to the wearer. Return the badge to the RSO with an explanatory note.
6. The dosimeter must be placed on a designated dosimeter rack in the w88 slot online for periodic exchange. Delay in returning a dosimeter results in considerable extra work and correspondence during follow up. A dosimeter which is returned late cannot be processed with the control dosimeter supplied with the shipment.
7. Do not remove the w88 slot online from the facility.
8. The user must notify the RSO before undergoing any nuclear medicine studies or treatments or before returning to work and wearing their w88 slot online after such studies or treatment.
9. If the dosimeter is lost or damaged, a record of the incident will be made in order to document the period of time for which the w88 slot online data was lost.

NOTE: A dosimeter must be processed immediately whenever serious w88 slot online is suspected. Call the RSO if such circumstances arise.

18.3 w88 slot online

18.3.1 w88 slot online Exposure Record

w88 slot online exposure data will be sent to each group or department to be available to dosimeter wearers when reports are received. w88 slot online exposure data shall be part of the permanent records of the EH&S Department. Upon written request by any wearer, EH&S will provide a copy of the individual's exposure history.

18.3.2 Records of Prior w88 slot online

Employees or students requiring personal dosimetry will be required to complete the appropriate form indicating all locations where previous w88 slot online exposures may have occurred. With the signed consent of the employee, a letter will be sent to the indicated facility or facilities requesting prior exposure history. Falsified statements or refusal to provide this information will result in denial, or termination of Authorized User status.

18.4 Internal w88 slot online

Bioassays may be required at the discretion of the RSO. As a general principle, bioassays will be required after any incident (e.g., contamination of w88 slot online or exposure of persons to airborne radioactivity) where the possibility of internal deposition of radioisotopes exists. Bioassays include such tests as radioanalysis of blood, urine, fecal samples, nose swabs or sputum. In addition the term bioassay includes whole body or thyroid counts. Bioassay service is available at any time upon the request of the User. Thyroid counts (which takes only a few minutes) or other bioassays may be arranged by calling the RSO at 784-4540.

18.4.1 w88 slot online for Users of Radioiodine

Any person who works with forms of radioiodine where iodide ions or uncombined iodine might be present in quantities which equal or exceed the values in the table given below are required to have bioassays at intervals deemed appropriate by the w88 slot online according to the Regulatory Guide 8.20 (Revision 2 dated September 2014).

*Volatile radioiodine w88 slot online only be handled in fume hoods or other systems which have been inspected and approved by the RSO.

**Quantities in w88 slot online table are cumulative amounts handled during a three month period.

1. Anyone working with levels within the above limits w88 slot online have a baseline bioassay performed within two weeks prior to beginning work with radioactive iodine.
2. When an investigator is terminating his work with radioiodine, a bioassay will be performed within two weeks of the last possible w88 slot online to I-125 or I-131.
3. Whenever an individual is found to have a thyroid burden in excess of 0.12 uCi of I-125 or 0.04 uCi of I-131, the w88 slot online may take the following action:
   1. Complete a thorough evaluation of all aspects w88 slot online iodination procedure.
   2. Restrict the worker from further w88 slot online until the source of w88 slot online is discovered and corrected.
   3. Repeat the bioassay periodically to obtain an individual effective half-life and to determine committed effective w88 slot online equivalent.
   4. Refer the individual to appropriate w88 slot online consultation for recommendations regarding therapeutic procedures that may be carried out to accelerate removal of radioiodine from the body.
   5. Make reports of notifications as w88 slot online by the State of Nevada Regulations.

w88 slot online are required to call the RSO whenever they suspect that they might have been exposed to airborne radioiodine or if they believe that they might have ingested or otherwise allowed radioiodine to enter their bodies.

18.5 w88 slot online Surveillance Policy

w88 slot online will be placed under medical surveillance when their potential exposure to ionizing radiation is such that somatic biological effects susceptible to detection by a medical evaluation could occur. Such appraisal will include an acute and chronic exposure evaluation and will consider many variables (duration, source, type of potential exposure, etc.). w88 slot online requiring medical surveillance will be referred to an examining physician by EH&S.

REFUSAL TO OBTAIN REQUIRED MEDICAL SURVEILLANCE w88 slot online RESULT IN SUSPENSION OF AUTHORIZATION TO WORK WITH RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS.

18.5.1 w88 slot online Records and Examination

1. It is the policy w88 slot online University of Nevada, Reno to qualitatively and quantitatively determine internally deposited radioisotopes.
2. Examinations will be made of any student or employee who is suspected of, or known to have, ingested, inhaled, or absorbed radioisotopes. Urine radioanalysis, thyroid counting, and eye examinations may be included. w88 slot online workers shall be scheduled to appear at a prearranged time for the prescribed analysis.
3. Medical records w88 slot online consist of the following:
   1. Any measurement w88 slot online to detect internally deposited radioisotopes.
   2. Information necessary to assess w88 slot online.
   3. w88 slot online dosimetry records.
4. Copies of medical examination records will be maintained in EH&S and coordinated with w88 slot online dosimetry data.

18.6 Visitor w88 slot online

Visitors are not normally allowed in restricted areas. Prior arrangements have to be made between the RSO and the AU, if there is a need to have visitors in a restricted area. The RSO w88 slot online arrange appropriate dosimetry as required.
