Introduction to nuclear medicine technology NMT 231

Hot Lab nuclear medicine facilities are divided into two parts:- i)controlled area ii) supervised area. Hot lab is named as controlled area/room

Hot Lab Hot lab is a specially designed room in a nuclear medicine hospital where the radiopharmaceuticals are delivered, stored and prepared for dispensing. The workers spend most of their time for patient dose preparation. All the nuclear medicine facilities in the World use some common radionuclide such as 99mTc, 131I, 125I, 129I, 137Cs, 90Sr, 32P, 57Co for calibration, diagnostic use and therapeutic modalities, as well as academic and research activities

Syringe and Vial Shields Shielding & Storage Products Dose Calibrators and Wipe Test Counters Sinks and washing facility

Building requirements Floors Impervious material Washable Chemical-resistant Curved to the walls All joints sealed

Worktop surfaces Worktop surfaces must be finished in a smooth, washable and chemical-resistant surface with all joints sealed. Some laminates do not resist certain chemicals, and the supplier should be consulted with regard to the specific chemicals to be used in the laboratory.

Part 4. Design7 Worktop surfaces Cover the surface with absorbing paper

VENTILATION Laboratories in which unsealed sources, especially radioactive aerosols or gases, may be produced or handled should have an appropriate ventilation system that includes a fume hood, laminar air flow cabinet or glove box

Sinks and washing facility

Part 4. Design10 Washing facilities The wash-up sink should be located in a low-traffic area adjacent to the work area. Taps should be operable without direct hand contact and disposable towels or hot air dryer should be available. An emergency eye-wash should be installed near the hand-washing sink and there should be access to an emergency shower in or near the laboratory.

Safety equipment in hot lab Shields Protective clothing Tools for remote handling of radioactive material Containers for radioactive waste Dose rate monitor with alarm Contamination monitor Decontamination kit Signs, labels and records

Shielding Bench top shield Vial shields Syringe shields Structural shielding 12

Protective clothing

Forceps And Tongs 14

Containers for radioactive waste 15 Several containers should be available in order to segregate the waste at the point of origin (radionuclides, half-lives, glass, paper, syringes etc.)

Signs, labels and records
