Title: Radiation exposure due to 99mTc and 131I manipulated in syringes. Author: Schmidt W, Nowotny R, Kletter K, Frischauf H. Journal: Eur J Nucl Med; 1979 Oct; 4(5):389-91. PubMed ID: 520350. Abstract: Dose rates around and at the surface of disposable polypropylene syringes of 1 and 2 ml volume filled with 99mTc and 131I solutions were determined by thermoluminescence dosimetry. Data for the efficacy of 0.5 and 1 mm lead shielding of 99mTc and for the dose contribution due to beta- -radiation from 131I are given.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
