Detailed Description

If you are responsible for radiation safety, this programme was produced to help you. It is designed to teach radiation workers dealing with unsealed sources of radioactive material, the importance of proper contamination control.

The video looks at how good laboratory design and good working practices help minimise the effect of accidents, and shows how to detect and deal with contamination.

It covers

• laboratory design

• use of personal protective equipment

• levels of containment • surface contamination monitoring

• decontamination an emergency procedures

No matter how careful people are, the accidental splash of contamination can always happen. This video will help them prepare for that event, ensuring that a minor mishap does not become a major problem. 2000, 23 mins.
