Release of Patients Administered Radioactive Material

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is issuing Revision 1 to Regulatory Guide (RG) 8.39, "Release of Patients Administered Radioactive Material." This RG (Revision 1) provides licensees with more detailed instructions to provide to patients before and after they have been administered radioactive material than was in Revision 0. In addition, the guide includes a new section on "Death of a Patient Following Radiopharmaceutical or Implants Administrations," as well as requirements for recordkeeping. Also, Table 3, "Activities of Radiopharmaceuticals That Require Instructions and Records When Administered to Patients Who Are Breastfeeding an Infant or Child," has been revised.
