Protection Program |
|
As required by the "North Carolina Regulations For Protection Against Radiation" rule .1603 Radiation Protection Programs. Each licensee or registrant shall develop, document, and implement a radiation protection program. The registrant (Radiation Safety Officer) shall annually review the radiation protection program's content and implementation. The following reference guides may be used to
aid in developing the facility written radiation protection program. The Radiation Safety Program is a unique
document based upon the scope of activities provided by each practice. Additional reference guides that may be
helpful in development of the written safety program are located: http://www.ncradiation.net/Xray/reference.htm
A good Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality
Control (QC) program is recommended to produce quality images and optimized
processing conditions. QA and QC help
to minimize the need for unnecessary retakes and appropriate exposure factors
when processes are optimized. To be considered an excellent complete Safety Program the facility would include its
QA and QC procedures. Select
the reference guide that applies to your facility |
