| Title | Lost Source |
| Event Description | The following information was provided by the Florida Bureau of Radiation Control (BRC) via email:
The radiation safety officer (RSO) called the BRC to report a lost Ge-68 pin source from their PET scanner. It was discovered missing about a week ago. The RSO said the source had a reference date of April 1, 2021, with an initial activity of 1.49 mCi. Apparently, the previous consultant tried to send it back to Eckert and Zeigler in 2021, but it was returned twice from the common carrier due to not being packaged properly. Eckert and Zeigler apparently never received the source. The RSO has copies of the paperwork from the common carrier, but the dates do not line up. The BRC Miami inspection office will follow up with an investigation. Florida Incident Number: FL25-049. |
