AB Maintenance of radiation safety records is a regulatory requirement for the practice of nuclear medicine. Record-keeping can be easily accomplished with personal computers (PCs), IBM or Macintosh. PCs equipped with calendar, word processing, spreadsheet, and desktop publishing software permit easy design of forms customized for the activities of any particular laboratory. The programs allow the drawing of floor plans, perform calculations, and keep data organized for easy entry and review of activities. The authors show how these forms can be produced and customized for nuclear medicine laboratories. Efficiently designed forms, tailored to specific activities, are of great benefit in documentation and compliance with radiation safety regulatory requirements.
