Regular equipment calibration and leak tests are mandated to check for defects. Radiation monitoring badges are also worn by all personnel to track cumulative doses. Alarm systems instantly detect abnormal radiation levels to alert workers to evacuate potentially hazardous areas. Remote handling tools further reduce direct contact with radioactive sources. Compliance audits evaluate adherence to best practices and help identify scope for improvements. Non-compliance can result in license suspension or revocation.
Radiation Protection is the regulatory framework established by national and international authorities, such as the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), which sets limits, guidelines, and practices for the safe use of ionizing radiation to minimize risks to human health and the environment.
