Re: Nuclear Medicine Patients and Homeland Security



Maybe they could charge like a bottle deposit. You pay money in cash when

you get the dose and when you show that you're no longer hot - you get your

money back. The HP's could keep the unclaimed deposits just like the bottle

companies do in NY :)) $1000 in unmarked bills should work.
