"This report...is designed to serve as a guide for persons (including physicians, nurses, and funeral directors) concerned with the patient who has received a THERAPEUTIC dose of a radionuclide...With the increasing use of radionuclides in therapy, a more comprehensive consideration of the problem, including that of the ambulatory radioactive patient, is desirable. Four situations are of interest: (1) the patient receiving regular nursing care in the hospital; (2) the patient receiving emergency surgery; (3) the patient released from the hospital while still containing an appreciable quantity of the radionuclide; (4) the patient who dies while appreciably radioactive. The present report includes information and recommendations on all of these points for a larger number of radionuclides than were considered in the earlier NCRP report. This report is directed primarily to problems encountered in the general hospital where the therapeutic use of radioactive material is occasional rather than carried out on an intensive scale. For the few large radiation centers more detailed and specialized provisions may be necessary, and can be developed from the principles given here. This report is intended to serve as a guide to good practice. It provides basic standards which may be used in the preparation of regulatory protection codes, but is not specifically written for literal adoption as legal regulations." -- From Preface, page iii.

"In hospital radiation facilities of all types, safety procedures for protecting radiation workers and the general public must be carefully planned and supervised and controlled by a qualified staff member. To meet currently accepted standards for protection, the potential exposures of workers and anyone else in or near a radiation area are evaluated and precautions taken to avert the possibility of exceeding, or even approaching, the permissible radiation levels. Radiation workers employed in these facilities are informed about these safety procedures. However, there are various individuals involved in the delivery of medical care, or in research, who are not usually categorized as radiation workers. Their duties may occasionally take them into areas where radiation or radioactive materials are present. For want of a better term, we may group many of these individuals under the title of "allied health personnel." Among these are physicians, nurses, technicians, and others who are not classified as radiation workers, but who occasionally have to deal with radioactive materials or with patients who have received radiopharmaceuticals. In addition, there are others, not directly involved in the care of patients or research, who may incidentally be exposed to radiation in the course of their work. Such, for instance, are personnel in institutional shipping and receiving rooms; and those engaged in hospital maintenance work. Many of these people are concerned about radiation hazards and often suffer misconceptions regarding the subject. They sometimes work without instruction or guidance. Sometimes they seek out someone to ask questions about radiation and do receive from them careful answers to their questions. Too often, however, they are simply told that everything is all right and that they have no cause to worry. One purpose of this report is to note the types of problems encountered, and try to give approaches to handling them. The Radiation Protection Supervisor is usually aware of potential hazards within an institution, but sometimes the problems are not evident even to him." --From Preface, pages iii-iv.

NCRP Report No. 116 is the latest in the long series of reports on basic radiation protection criteria that began in 1934. It supersedes the predecessor in the series, NCRP Report No. 91, which was published in 1987. The current Report takes advantage of new information, evaluations and thinking that have developed since 1987, particularly the risk estimate formulations set out in NCRP Report No. 115. While the recommendations set out in this Report do not constitute a radical revision of the basic criteria, they do represent a refinement of the system enunciated in Report No. 91. Important changes include the utilization of revised tissue/organ weighting factors and the introduction of radiation weighting factors. Also noteworthy is the introduction of an allowable reference level of intake. Noteworthy too is the recommendation of an age-based lifetime limit for control of occupational exposures and a major simplification of limits aimed at controlling the exposure of the embryo and fetus. This Report, after outlining the goals and philosophy of radiation protection and the basis for exposure limits, goes on to review, in some detail, absorbed dose, equivalent dose, radiation weighting factors, and effective dose. Committed equivalent dose and committed effective dose are also introduced. Risk estimates for radiation exposure are presented and then the dose limits are enunciated. The Report also covers exposure in excess of the limits, limits for unusual occupational situations, guidance for emergency occupational exposure, and remedial action levels for naturally occurring radiation.

This book explains clearly and in detail all aspects of radiation protection in nuclear medicine, including measurement quantities and units, detectors and dosimeters, and radiation biology. Discussion of radiation doses to patients and to embryos, fetuses, and children forms a central part of the book. Phantom models, biokinetic models, calculations, and software solutions are all considered, and a further chapter is devoted to quality assurance and reference levels. Occupational exposure also receives detailed attention. Exposure resulting from the production, labeling, and injection of radiopharmaceuticals and from contact with patients is discussed and shielding calculations are explained. The book closes by considering exposure of the public and summarizing the "rules of thumb" for radiation protection in nuclear medicine. This is an ideal textbook for students and a ready source of useful information for nuclear medicine specialists and medical physics experts.

This book is the seventh in a series of titles from the National Research Council that addresses the effects of exposure to low dose LET (Linear Energy Transfer) ionizing radiation and human health. Updating information previously presented in the 1990 publication, Health Effects of Exposure to Low Levels of Ionizing Radiation: BEIR V, this book draws upon new data in both epidemiologic and experimental research. Ionizing radiation arises from both natural and man-made sources and at very high doses can produce damaging effects in human tissue that can be evident within days after exposure. However, it is the low-dose exposures that are the focus of this book. So-called “late” effects, such as cancer, are produced many years after the initial exposure. This book is among the first of its kind to include detailed risk estimates for cancer incidence in addition to cancer mortality. BEIR VII offers a full review of the available biological, biophysical, and epidemiological literature since the last BEIR report on the subject and develops the most up-to-date and comprehensive risk estimates for cancer and other health effects from exposure to low-level ionizing radiation.
