radiation dose assessments

Are you a university or research site look to conduct studies using radiation? Did you know you are required to provide a Radiation Dose Assessment report with your Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) submission?

The Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) has outlined a Code Of Practice for Exposure of Humans to Ionizing Radiation for Research Purposes. This publication outlines a number of requirements of the investigator, including the need for a report by a qualified expert that is approved by the regulatory authority to make estimates of risk when using ionizing radiation.

511 is able to provide assessments for a range of studies. From BMD, standard nuclear medicine radiopharmaceuticals, PET/CT studies, to new and novel tracers still under development.
