Design of Environments and Procedures for Radiological Safety
The use of ionizing radiation sources is a well-established practice across multiple sectors—from medicine (X-ray, CT, PET) to industry, where they are employed for analysis, production, and research.
Without proper design of spaces and operating procedures, uncontrolled exposures or contamination events may occur, leading to risks for the public, workers, and the environment, as well as potential non-compliance with regulatory requirements.
The management, storage, and disposal of radioactive materials involve potential risks and must be planned and designed in strict compliance with regulatory and legislative frameworks, and, where applicable, with the prescriptions of the Authorization Decree (Nulla Osta).
To ensure the highest level of protection, it is essential to adopt specific design solutions that consider the nature of the activity, the type of radioactive sources used, and all applicable regulations.
