Title	Potential Personnel Overexposure
Event Description	A representative of Landauer (the optically stimulated dosimeter provider) reported to the hospital that a person on the hospital staff received a 113,165 millirem deep dose whole body reading for the reporting period of 8/1/07 - 8/31/07. The shallow dose reading was 107,506 millirem. The Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) contacted the individual with the high dose reading. The individual said that he had no ill health effects so he believed the reading was not correct. The individual said that he normally wears his dosimeter attached to a lanyard that he wears around his neck. He did remember one day when a therapist brought him his dosimeter from a linear accelerator room. The individual did not recall leaving his dosimeter in the room. The RSO talked to a representative of Landauer about distinguishing between a potential dose from an accelerator and other doses the individual may have received from performing his duties but this could not be definitively done.
