Radioactive Material Licensing and Radiation Producing Machine Registration

This section applies to requirements for registration of radiation producing devices and licensure of radioactive materials in DEMONSTRATION- SALES -INSTALLATION and SERVICE of machines in all states and territories of the United States of America.

The Chief Radiation Safety Officer is responsible for obtaining registrations and licenses for radiation producing devices and radioactive sources used in machine calibration.

Registration and licensing is required to establish compliance with State and Federal regulation regarding radiation emitting devices.

States and territories have different registration and licensing requirements. In all cases where it is known that a license or registration permit is required, but not available for Siemens work, the Radiation Safety office will be notified as soon as practical in order to facilitate work in that state. It is the responsibility for the Regional Service Manager for that region to ensure that work is not done where Siemens is not registered or licensed for that work.

In some states or territory, any new service personnel must be added to the registration or license before they are able to work in that state or territory. This process may take 45 to 60 days and require fees. RSM or Manager Notify the Radiation Safety Office to start this process for any new workers to a state or territory. Any new personnel must have training, experience, and dosimetry in order to be approved by the state regulatory agency.

The CRSO will attempt to register or license work in any state or territory but may not be able to get registration or licensure unless notice is available at least 45 days before any planned work.

In some states licensure reciprocity is held against the Siemens North Carolina radioactive material license. In those states where reciprocity was obtained, the state radiological control agency must be notified at least three days before work in that jurisdiction. It is the Responsibility of the District and Local Radiation Safety Officers, Regional Service Managers, Technical Service Engineers, and Customer Service Engineers to ensure compliance with registrations, licenses, and state and federal regulations.

Untrained personnel must not work on radiation generating machines or radioactive material.

Siemens personnel are not authorized to: • Order radioactive material for use at a customer site. • Use radioactive material at a customer's site without customer

authorization. • Remove radioactive material from a customer's site.

• Transport or assist in the transport of radioactive material unless they have proper training.

For each use of these sources, the Siemens CSE shall ensure that the sources are protected from damage, theft, and loss while they are being used and ensure that a customer representative will be available for return of the source(s) that are used at the customer's facility or arrangements are made to return the sources to a secure location identified by the customer.

Siemens Medical Solutions, USA Inc., does not at any time own or take custody of these materials so as a practice is not licensed for this material. They are never under Siemens' control away from the customer's facility. The customer's RSO is responsible at all times for all RAM listed under their license.

Siemens personnel are not to handle the radioactive sources in the Service Process without the Customer's RSO knowledge I supervision (RSO for the valid license holder).

These sources are the responsibility of the Radiation Safety Officer who holds the license (customer). The customer's RSO or their representative must authorize any work associated with these sources.

The Siemens employee must have been properly trained on the source in question in order to handle the source under the RSO's supervision. Without documented training in the following areas the CSE cannot handle the source:

• Proper handling • Health Hazards • Isotope specific information/data

1.4Phantom/Rod Sources for PET Equipment Covered by Contract I Sources for Profile option Covered by Contract

• CSEs will not order radioactive material for the customer. This section is included to guide a for providing information to the customer.

• The Contract Administrator in the Processing Center identifies/verifies if Source Replenishment is included under the terms of the service agreement, and creates a Purchase Order with the source Vendor for one replenishment per year of service agreement (two replenishments per year of service agreement for NM Profile option).

• The PM Coordinator schedules the PM with the Customer and CSE.

• If the customer contacts the CSE about source replenishment. The CSE contacts the PM coordinator or Processing Center about the PET Source Replenishment, to ensure delivery of the radioactive material to the Customer at the appropriate place and time. The Customer will be required to provide a copy of their Radioactive Materials (RAM) license to the Vendor, prior to receiving shipment of replenishment sources. A new Purchase Order for the Vendor is generally not required, since a Purchase Order has already been established by the Processing Center for the source replenishment under the terms of the service agreement. The Vendor will contact the Processing Center for proper invoicing.

SMS employees will follow directions provided by the customer for any emergency action upon agreement with the Siemens RSO.

In the case of spills of radioactive materials, the SMS employee will provide assistance to the customer RSO if the Siemens RSO determines that the SMS employee is suitably trained in decontamination techniques and the customer requires that assistance.

Access to hot labs shall be at the request of the customer.

Siemens CSE's shall not prepare radioactive solutions. All work with unsealed radioactive material must be done by the customer and provided to the SMS CSE as a contained radioactive solution. The CSE shall take precautions to prevent spillage of the radioactive liquid such as movement to the work site in a container with sufficient absorbent to contain the entire liquid volume if the container should fail.

2.2 Decontamination of Areas Contaminated with Radioactive Material

Spills or transfer of radioactive liquids to surfaces of devices, furniture, or floors shall be immediately identified to the customer RSO and assistance provided as indicated previously in this section.

2.3 Decontamination of Customer/Siemens Personnel Contaminated with Radioactive Material

Any contamination of site or Siemens personnel with radioactive material shall be immediately reported to the customer RSO and the Siemens RSO. The customer RSO shall initiate emergency actions in accordance with the customer's radioactive material license. The customer RSO will take actions as necessary to remove contamination from skin surfaces and retain clothing for decay in storage as required.

Guidance for removal of radioactive contamination from skin surfaces:

1. Initially and periodically throughout the decontamination readings of the contamination level on the skin surface should be measured and recorded to allow for skin dose determination. 2. Cover non contaminated areas of skin or clothing to prevent cross contamination due to the decontamination of the affected surfaces. 3. Set up a tray or other large container with absorbent material to collect the drippings of contaminated water from washing the contaminated skin surface. 4. Using a mild- non-caustic- non-abrasive soap and warm water, wash the affected area with a minimum of water while making suds on the contaminated location. Wipe frequently with a dry absorbent material. Do not scrub the skin and do not exceed three minutes wash time. 5. If contamination remains on the surface after washing, cover the affected area with a moisturizing skin cream and a rubber glove or other means to contain the cream without possibility for cross contamination.

6. After several hours, wash the cream off of the skin surface and monitor the skin to determine if the decontamination was effective. 7. Repeat with more skin cream. If the contaminated individual must leave the facility, then the surface should be covered to prevent transfer of contamination from the skin and the skin cream washed off periodically to remove the contamination.

If clothes or personal property are contaminated, they will be controlled in accordance with the customer's radioactive material handling procedures.

2.4 Emergencies

CSEs are instructed to contact the customer/site RSO and Siemens CRSO at 800-546-7494 and their supervisor if any unexpected emergencies arise. When necessary, appropriate notification will be made by the customer to the customer's licensing agency to inform them of the nature of the emergency. If work is being conducted out-of-state under a reciprocity agreement, the appropriate state regulatory agency or the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission may be notified if required. The Siemens CRSO should be notified for any such situation.

Manual Rod Source Retract Procedure

Manual Rod Source Retract Procedure ECAT ACCEL, ECAT EXACT, and ECAT EXACT HR+ CPS P/N 9060017-01

This procedure outlines the process of manually retracting the rod sources when they have been left extended by a power outage.

Safety Considerations

1

In the event of a power outage, it is highly recommended that all nonessential personnel/eave the area until radioactive sources are secured within adequate shielding or retracted.

The procedure that follows must be implemented by the site's trained service engineer.

Tools and Equipment needed

Radiation survey meter

Medium Phillips-head screwdriver

Large flat-head screwdriver

Antistatic kit.

Antistatic precautions should be taken to limit the possibility of scanner damage due to ESD.

Procedure: If Power has been Restored

When power has been restored to the facility following a power outage, the scanner will come up in E-STOP mode. If the rods were extended when the power went out, they will remain extended when the power comes back up. The easiest way to determine if they are fully or partially extended is to check the front panel message. If the rod and septa positions are unknown, then the rods are at least partially in the field of view. On systems with EL front panels, determine if the rod source indicator light is blinking, indicating rod activity in the field of view. If power has been restored, the best practice is as follows.

1. Determine if the rods are in the field of view by checking one of the front panels.

2. If the rod and septa positions are unknown, reset the gantry by pressing either the reset button on the E-STOP box at the operator's console, or the reset button on the gantry entrance panel.

3. From an ECAT login command tool window, send the following command to retract the rod sources:

ecatcon:1>move -t -retract

4. After the retract process is complete, check one of the front panels to verify that the rods are indeed retracted, and to observe the position of the septa.

CPS P/N 9060017-01 Rev. F

Page 68: NRC: Home Page - 0303g/!.tJL U;S -o · 2019-12-12 · SIEMENS Kathy Modes Senior Health Physicist US NRC Region I DNMS Health care Tuesday, August 12, 2014 (3 0303g/!.tJL 3 :z-3 S

2 Manual Rod Source Retract Procedure

5. If the septa position is "Unknown," the septa must be homed. Either press the "Remove Septa" softkey on one of the front panels, or type the following command at the console:

ecatcon:2>move -p -retract

The front panel softkeys can also be used to retract the rods and septa, but that requires getting relatively close to the sources. Use the front panel commands only if the console did not start back up in a cooperative state.

Procedure: If Power Has NOT been Restored

If power has not been restored to the system, the rods must be retracted man­ually. The procedure for doing this follows.

Note: The personnel performing this procedure will be exposed to ionizing radiation if the transmission rod sources are in the field of view.

1. Use the survey meter to determine if the rods are extended.

2. If the rods are extended, go to the next step. Otherwise there is no reason to continue.

3. Switch CB1 on the gantry entrance panel to shut off power to the scanner.

Should the facility power come back up in the middle of the procedure, gantry power must not be enabled.

4. Using the Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the screws holding the laser tunnel in place.

5. Carefully remove the laser tunnel taking care not to mangle the fingerstock or knock the lasers out of alignment.

6. Using the flat-head screw driver, loosen the lock-bolts holding the rear cover in place.

These need only be loosened to the point at which they yield. Turning them too much can break them!

7. Remove the back cover of the gantry.

8. Locate the stopblock as shown in Figure 1 (Page 3).

CPS P/N 9060017-01 Rev. F

Page 69: NRC: Home Page - 0303g/!.tJL U;S -o · 2019-12-12 · SIEMENS Kathy Modes Senior Health Physicist US NRC Region I DNMS Health care Tuesday, August 12, 2014 (3 0303g/!.tJL 3 :z-3 S

Manual Rod Source Retract Procedure 3

& WARNING

Figure 1: A look at the shotbolt and stop­block as seen from the rear of the gantry with the back cover removed.

9. Manually move the shotbolt stopblock in a clockwise direction around the scanner's field of view.

The rods should begin to retract immediately.

1 0. Continue to move the stopblock until the rod-retract limit switch closes, indicating that retraction is complete. See Figure 2 (Page 4) for the location of the limit switch.

11. Use the survey meter to verify that the rods are indeed fully retracted.

12. Check the main circuit breaker inside the rear of the gantry (bottom center) to verify that it is in the "on" position.

This circuit breaker can open as a result of the power outage.

13. Replace the rear cover, being careful not to over-tighten the locking latches.

14. Replace the laser tunnel, again taking care with the fingerstock.

15. Flip CB 1 into the "on" position.

CB1 MUST be in the "on" position so that the gantry will come up at the same time as the chiller does. If the scanner is left off while the chiller is on, the condensation that occurs will wreak havoc as it is blown by the fans onto the gantry electronics when the gantry does finally come back up.

Figure 2: Placement of the rod­retract limit and kill switches with detail showing the limit switch. Note that the rods should NOT be retracted to the point where the actuator ring makes contact with the kill switch.

Manual Rod Source Retract Procedure

When the rods retract, their housings push back on the actuator ring. At some point, the actuator ring is pushed back into the limit switch, which is the determination of the fully retracted position. If the rods are retracted past the limit switch into the kill switch, the system will recognize it as a problem and not allow drive current to reach the drive motor.

4. The CRSO will keep a copy of each employee's PEH on file. 5. The CRSO will enter the employee's PEH into the Badge Vendor's

permanent exposure history for the individual.

Exchange Frequency/Reading

1. Whole body dosimeters must be exchanged or read quarterly (type dependent).

2. Ring badges must be exchanged quarterly. 3. Fetal monitoring badges will be exchanged on a monthly basis. 4. Wear Periods (quarters): January 1 -March 31, April 1 -June 30,

5. The badge vendor will automatically send new badges with return envelopes within the last 2 weeks of the quarter. All badges must be mailed back to the vendor prior to the 14th day of the new quarter.

6. lnstadose badges are not returned to the dosimetry vendor quarterly like whole body TLD or ring badges are. They should be read at a minimum quarterly during the prescribed read period (generally the 15th of the closing quarter's month to 15th of the new quarter's month). lnstadose badges are returned to the RSO office or the dosimetry vendor at the following times:

• When the badge is damaged or stops working, • When requested to be sent back for QA of the badge, • When the badge is no longer needed for radiation work, or • When you are restricted from radiation work.

Initializing, Reading and Saving reports instructions for lnstadose

1. lnstadose badges are initialized and read via a USB connection on your computer.

Note: DO NOT CONNECT THE DEVICE UNTIL PROMPTED TO DOSO.

2. Upon receipt, you are instructed to take the Learn@Siemens course catalog number# 00257114. The Power Point will explain step by step process for each of the three required steps.

3. For touchpad users, an extension cable may be required to connect device, contact the CRSO for this device.

4. In applications where a stronger clip is required, contact the CRSO for an additional clip.

5. These devices are attracted by MRI systems, but are not a danger according to testing done by the MR factory in Germany. The device is not harmed by the magnetic field. If assigned the device, you must wear it even in the magnet rooms.

Lost or Damaged Dosimetry

1. Lost badges must be reported immediately to the CRSO

2. Employees must complete the E052 CX RC-US (IM/CP) Lost or Missing badge report and timely submit to the CRSO.

3. For lost or damaged dosimetry, the employee may not perform duties that would expose them to radiation until they receive a new badge.

4. An estimated dose will be calculated and applied to the employee's permanent dose record by the CRSO using E053 CX RC-US (IM/CP) Erroneous Badge Reading and Dose Estimate

Exposure Investigations

1. Investigations of ALARA triggers will be timely and documented on the

following forms using the documented levels on those forms:

E054 ex Re-US (IM/eP) ALARA Level 1 ALARA Investigation Form • A message is sent to the worker to alert them regarding the

dose and request further information. A dose estimate that more appropriately reflects the worker's dose may be made. This is the most common ALARA level to be exceeded. The reason is primarily related to exposure of the dosimeter in checked luggage at an airport.

E055 eX Re-US (IM/eP) ALARA Level 2 ALARA Investigation Form • It is unusual that any Siemens workers would receive such a

dose; however, it does happen that a dosimeter may respond with a dose in this category. A message is sent to the worker to alert them regarding the dose and request further information. A dose estimate that more appropriately reflects the worker's dose may be made.

• This level may be indicative of a faulty dosimeter or a real situation of exposure that may or may not be associated with work on radiation producing devices or radioactive sources. The district or local Siemens RSO or eRSO will contact the worker to determine if there must be an action to change the way the worker is handling sources or exposed to radiation.

E163 eX Re-US (IM/eP) ALARA Level 3 ALARA Investigation Form • THE WORKER MUST STOP WORK WITH RADIATION

• FURTHER EXPOSURE MAY CAUSE A DOSE IN EXCESS OF REGULATORY LIMITS

• It is unusual that any Siemens workers would receive such a dose; however, it does happen that a dosimeter may respond with a dose in this category. A message is sent to the worker to alert them regarding the dose and request further information. A dose estimate that more appropriately reflects the worker's dose may be made.

The district or local Siemens RSO or CRSO will contact the worker to determine if there must be an action to change the way the worker is handling sources or exposed to radiation.

• This level may also be indicative of a situation that may be causing personnel an unacceptable dose due to inappropriate use of a radiation producing device or a radioactive source. The district or local RSO AND CRSO will evaluate the field situation and provide input to the evaluation of this exposure before the worker will be allowed to receive further radiation exposure.

2. Investigations where occupational dose limits are exceeded will be conducted immediately. All radiation work will be suspended for the employee while the investigation is being conducted. Notifications to the authority having jurisdiction will be made by the CRSO based on legal requirements.

E198 CX RC-US (IM/CP) Dose in Excess of Limits

Policy Description

Introduction

Declaration of Pregnancy

This policy describes the requirements and intent of CX RC-US with regard to reducing ionizing radiation exposure to declared pregnant employees. This policy, while optional is recommended to ensure exposure to the fetus is maintained within Federal Limits and to help minimize risks associated with ionizing radiation.

Declared pregnant woman means a woman who has voluntarily informed the licensee, in writing, of her pregnancy and the estimated date of conception. The declaration remains in effect until the declared pregnant woman withdraws the declaration in writing or is no longer pregnant. In the case that a pregnancy declaration is not withdrawn, the declaration is considered expired after one year.

Required Documents

Dosimetry and Fetal Dose Monitoring

It is beneficial, but not required, for an employee to declare her pregnancy to the Siemens Chief RSO as soon as possible, since the first four months of pregnancy is potentially the most radiosensitive time for a fetus. If an employee's pregnancy is formally declared to the RSO via completion of a Declaration of Pregnancy form, the RSO and/or the Employee's Manager will meet with the pregnant employee to review radiation safety procedures and discuss additional fetal badge dosimetry. In addition, the NRC Regulatory Guide 8.13 will be given to the employee and the employee will be given a chance to ask further questions regarding this information.

Forms for Declaration of Pregnancy, Withdrawal from Declared Pregnancy Status, Fetal Dose Limitations for Declared Pregnancy, and Fetal Dose Record are available in CX-USA Document Library and can also be found within the Live Link Quality Documents.

This declaration will be kept confidential unless circumstances create a need for disclosure. The people who are listed above will always be notified- this includes the CRSO, the local RSO and employee's manager.

Declared pregnant employees will be assigned two badges, one for the whole body (worn at collar or chest level) and one for the fetus (normally worn on the abdomen under the lead apron) Employees who have declared pregnancy will exchange (or read for the instadose) badges on a monthly basis. If the employee is wearing an instadose badge, they are welcome to read the badge more frequently if desired.

It is the responsibility of the CRSO, management and the employee to ensure that the dose equivalent to the embryo/fetus during the entire pregnancy due to the occupational exposure of a declared pregnancy women does not exceed 0.5 rem (5 mSv). If the dose equivalent to the embryo/ fetus is found to have exceeded 0.5 rem (5 mSv) or is within 0.05 rem (0,5 mSv) of this dose, by the time the woman declares the pregnancy to the licensee, the licensee shall be deemed to be in compliance with the dose requirement if the additional dose equivalent to the embryo/fetus does not exceed 0.05 rem (0.5 mSv) during the remainder of the pregnancy. The employee's dose history will be reviewed. Depending on the findings, the job duties of the employee may be altered. This will be determined by the RSO and employee's manager.
