>Is anyone aware of other useful references in the literature...

The National Health & Medical Research Council here is Oz publishes the
Radiation Health Series. Radiation Health Series # 18, Code of Practice for
the Safe Handling of Corpses Containing Radioactive Materials (1986)
contains some basic guidelines and may be of some help.

It's only a few pages long. I'll fax a copy of it to you.
