Do not know if you remember the lead aprons, drapes, that were contaminated.  http://homer.ornl.gov/sesa/environment/guidance/aea/lead.pdf


A nuclear medicine department in a large urban hospital in Ontario bought some lead drapes to separate some parts of nuclear medicine.  When they were doing their routine surveys, they found out that the drapes were radioactive, and not from surface contamination.
