| Event Description | The following is a summary of information provided by the Florida Bureau of Radiation Control (BRC) via email:
On August 1, 2024, the BRC received a notification from the Jacksonville Cardiovascular Center mobile trailer that a 174 microcurie Cs-137 Evial calibration source was missing. The source was last inventoried at the end of June, 2024. Device: Evial Manufacturer: EZAG Model Number: 3350 Serial Number: 1792-20-18 Florida Incident Number: FL24-068 THIS MATERIAL EVENT CONTAINS A 'Less than Cat 3' LEVEL OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL Sources that are "Less than IAEA Category 3 sources," are either sources that are very unlikely to cause permanent injury to individuals or contain a very small amount of radioactive material that would not cause any permanent injury. Some of these sources, such as moisture density gauges or thickness gauges that are Category 4, the amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly - although it is unlikely - temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who were close to it for a period of many weeks.
