Which brings us back to the question that Alex has ask. Why don't TSA scanner operators have radiation badges?



Exposure to x-ray radiation is cumulative. That's why it's vital for all medical office staff who work with or around x-ray equipment to monitor and maintain an accurate history of their exposure.

The Dosimeter Radiation Badge is small and light and clips to clothes or can be worn on a cord. Badges are punch coded and have control numbers for easy tracking. You will receive accurate reports performed by a TLD reader that's equipped with a micro-computer which controls QA functions to assure an accurate reading.

IMPORTANT!
OSHA and many state agencies require the use of x-ray monitoring devices for all personnel who operate or are in proximity to radiation-emitting equipment. Failure to comply may result in fines. In addition, historical data of x-ray exposure can prove vital in the event of future litigation.

I also heard that Corexit helps moisturize hands and that the 9/12/2001 ground zero air was safe to breathe.
