A customer detected contamination on equipment used during a procedure with Cs-131 seeds. The customer was not initially able to identify the isotope of the contamination using their equipment, however they were able to perform a half-life estimation using dose measurements on a collimated container loaded with all the contaminated items from the procedure. The decay rate was roughly in line with Cs-131. The customer indicated that as part of their own procedures, the order, which arrived as a non-sterile mick pig, was opened and surveyed. No contamination was found at that time. A thorough investigation is ongoing.</br>Washington Incident Number: WA-22-021ing.
