On 10/17/23 around 1100 CDT, the licensee received two packages each containing technetium-99m. Swipe readings on the packages revealed gross counts of 19158 disintegrations per minute (DPM) for the first package and 6874 DPM for the second package. The licensee's radiation safety officer (RSO) and the supplier, Cardinal Health, were notified. The inside of the package was also wipe tested and was not contaminated. The nuclear medicine department was surveyed, including the hot lab and department hallway and no additional contamination was found. The licensee has placed the two cases in short term storage and intends to send them back to Cardinal Health when they are at background. The licensee also called and left a message with NRC Region 3 personnel. | On 10/17/23 around 1100 CDT, the licensee received two packages each containing technetium-99m.
