ABCs for a Radiation Safety Culture™ Avoidance Protective clothing and devices, such as lead aprons, thyroid collars, glasses, ceiling suspended screens and table-mounted lead curtains, are the first line of defense against radiation exposure. Personal dosimeters are used to monitor and help regulate exposure. Behavior Your behavior will affect your radiation exposure. When feasible, increase the distance and decrease the exposure time. Furthermore, scatter radiation is typically lower on the detector side. Finally, ensure that the proper equipment and appropriate techniques are used,...

Like a canary in a coal mine In the early days of coal mining, canaries were used as warning systems. If the little yellow bird stopped singing, the miners knew that the level of dangerous gases had substantially increased and it was time to exit the mine. In the operating room, RaySafe i3 is the modern-day canary. By providing real-time, accurate and easy-to-interpret dose information, RaySafe i3 helps healthcare workers decide when it is time to adjust their working behavior to avoid unnecessary exposure.
