It is the responsibility of each department or PI to identify new users who will be working with sources of radiation and advise them to contact EHS regarding the need for a dosimeter. Contact Radiation Safety before applying whole body dosimeter Applying for a Dosimeter Before a dosimeter can be issued, the applicant MUST: Complete radiation safety training see below.
