Responding to a Nuclear Power Disaster

Is it OK to apply safety management standards for nuclear medicine?

Use plastic filter paper and other radiation protection measures and decontamination methods used for nuclear medicine.

The same contamination countermeasures routinely used in nuclear medicine examination rooms can be directly applied to providing medical care during a nuclear accident. The cleaning and wiping technologies used in nuclear medicine examination rooms are useful as decontamination methods or for protecting equipment with plastic filter paper or film. Therefore, reconfirm the contamination countermeasures used in nuclear medicine examination rooms, which will also provide training for emergency radiation exposure healthcare.
