Re: Dosimetry Vendors

Sorry, I can't let this reply go unanswered. What Janice refers to is 
a time RIGHT after the acquisition of the Siemens Dosimetry Service. 
The delays were caused by many reasons, some not under our control, 
some were. This occurred back in November 1996 thru March 1997. We are 
NOT experiencing any delays since that time. Another important factor 
that has been lost in this, is, that we also had the ICN side of the 
house, which experienced NO delays. We now offer multiple types of 
dosimeters, to meet any customer need.

Time to let the PAST go .. and address what is the current situation. 
That is only fair, when an issue of this type is addressed in a 
public forum, such as Radsafe.
