방사성 물질 등의 이용 증가에 따른 안전 관리 문제점 고찰

Abstract

More recently, companies that have obtained permission to use radioactive materialsor radiation device and registered radiation workers have increased by 10% and 4% respectively. The increased use of radiation could have an effect on radiation safety control. However, thereis not nearly enough manpower and budget compared to the number of workers and facilities. This paper will suggest a counteroffer thought analyzing pending issues. The results of this paperindicate that there are 47 and 31.3 workers per radiation protection officer in educational andresearch institutes, respectively. There are 20.1 persons per RPO in hospitals, even though thereare 2 RPOs appointed. Those with a special license as a radioisotope handler were ruled out aspossible managers because medical doctors who have a special license for radioisotope handlingnormally have no experience with radiation safety. The number of staff members and budget havebeen insufficient for safety control at most educational and research institutes. It is necessary tobuild an optimized safety control system for effective Radiation Safety Control. This will reducethe risk factor of safety, and a few RPOs can be supplied for efficiency and convenience.
