Abstract: | Recent publications relating to environmental radioactive contamination from medical uses are described. It appears that the unprecented growth of medical uses of radionuclide continues in the United States; hospital effluents are not a measurement problem; and the regulatory climate is uncertain. The major need, appears to be in the reduction or control of medical radiation exposure to the patient from diagnosis and therapy. |
