Abstract

Although ORAMED study demonstrated that one in five nuclear medicine (NM) workers could exceed the annual skin dose limit, little research on this issue has been performed. Furthermore,
the increase in the number of NM procedures, especially those with less conventional radionuclides, rises additional concerns.
