  • After administration of a radiopharmaceutical, the patient remains radioactive for hours or even days, representing a source of potential radiation exposure. Thus, including the personnel who are occupationally exposed to ionizing radiation, radiation exposure must be managed for members of the public, in particular for people accompanying patients. In this study we investigated radiation exposure dose management in the nuclear medicine departments at seven general hospitals. Two of them had no radiation safety considerations for patient transporters, sanitation workers and the like. And they all were careless of radioprotection for people accompanying patients. The average dose rate to people accompanying patients from radioactive patients just before a bone scan was 25.60 ${\mu}$Sv h-1. This is higher than 20 ${\mu}$Sv $h^{-1}$which is the annual public dose limit for temporary use. Therefore radiation dose measurement and risk assessment of patient transporters, sanitation workers and the like should be performed. And the nuclear medicine technologist should provide advices on the radiation safety to patient transporters, sanitation workers, people accompanying patients and so on. To ensure the radiation safety for people accompanying patients, it is required to restrict the patient's access to his relatives, friends and other patients or isolate patients.

  • This study aimed at 1) investigating the perception, knowledge and behaviors of radiological technologists on radiation defence and 2) preparing plans to reduce the unnecessary radiation dose on practician, patients and their caretakers. For data collection, a structured questionnaire was used to survey 225 radiological technologists living in downtown Busan. To analyze the collected data, SPSS/PC+ Win 13 version was used. For verification of differences between groups, one-way ANOVA was conducted. In addition, multiple regression analysis was conducted to analyze the impact of general variables (knowledge, education, age and length of service) in radiation safety management perspective. No differences were found in terms of the knowledge on radiation/radioactivity according to educational background, age and length of service. In the perspective of radiation safety management, the highest figures were found among those in their 40s and higher and those with the education of college graduation and higher. As for the correlation between radiation safety management and knowledge on radiation/radioactivity, positive correlations were found in all cases. In addition, analysis on the impact of general variables in radiation safety management perspective indicated that the perception on radiation safety management was higher as the level of knowledge on radiation/radioactivity was higher. The correct radiation/radioactivity management through practician training was necessary to reduce radiation dose on radiological technologists and patients.
