Dose Rates from Patients


     Here's a question for the medical HPs.

     A patient is given 175 mCi I-131 (thyroid cancer?), what is the
     occupational dose to the attending medical staff?

     What dose rate at 1 meter from the patient?

     Is occupational dose monitoring normally required for medical
     personnel?

     Thanks.
