Badging during fluro



Dear list members
I'm interested in what people really do in badging workers in medical 
fluoroscopy rooms. Do you issue one or two badges?

My specific questions are:
a) if you issue one badge is it worn inside or outside the protective apron?
b) if you issue two badges 
	1 where are they worn?
	2 how do you prevent mixups?
c) what do you do with the data? ie what is recorded as the deep dose 
equivalent or whatever term you use. 

I know and have NCRP 122 "Use of personal moitors to estimate effective 
dose equivalent and effective dost to workers for external exposure to 
low-LET radiaton" but am interested in what folks are really doing. 

To avoid cluttering up the bb please respone to me directly at

ckel@unm.edu.

I'll reply to all responders and summarize what I find in a later note to 
the entire bb. 

Thanks in advance.
