Re[2]: IOM Report on the NRC's Medical Byproduct Use Program

[Robert Owen <Robert_Owen@health.ohio.gov>]

     I am aware of the NRC doing this, e.g., brachytherapy 
     misadministration in Pennsylvania leading to the death of a patient in 
     1994 (I believe).
     
     An agreement state has the same authority to do so and may well have.  
     I am just not aware of it.

Has a state ever publicly announced and fined any medical institution or 
practice for overexposing patient or public by misadministration of isotopes?
