2.1 Radiation
Radiation hazard prevention
This instrument is not equipped with any radioisotope or radiation generating unit, and
is therefore not regulated by radiationhazard prevention laws. However, the instrument
is capableof scanningstorage phosphorscreens which may be polluted by radioisotopes.
CAUTION
If radioisotope (RI) pollution occurs, stop use of the instrument immediately andfollow theinstructions of your radiation administrator.
Controlled area
Paragraph 1of Article1 ofthe LawEnforcement Rulesfor Prevention ofRadiation Hazards
due to Radioisotope and so forth (Prime Minister's Office ordinance No. 56) defines the
controlled area as "a place where the dose equivalent related to external radiation exceeds the dose equivalent determined by the Director General of the Science and
Technology Agency (hereinafter referred to as the Director General), the concentration
of radioisotopein theair exceedsthe concentrationdetermined by the Director General,
or the radioisotope density on the surface polluted by radioisotope exceeds the density
determined by the Director General."
2 Safety instructions
2.1 Radiation
Limit of superficial pollution
Paragraph 3 of Article 4 of Notice No. 15 of the Science and Technology Agency that
determines thequantity, etc.of radiatingisotope specifiesthat thedensity of radioisotope
on thesurface polluted by radioisotope must be one tenth of the density defined in Article
8.
Article 8 and Table 3 of this Notice define the limits as shown below:
1
Superficial density of radioisotope that radiates alpha rays: 4 Bq/cm
2
Superficial density of radioisotope that does not radiate alpha rays: 40 Bq/cm

2 Safety instructions
2.1 Radiation
Installation site of instrument
This instrument is capable of scanning not only storage phosphor screens but also fluorescent pigment label samples (non-RI method). Therefore, it is recommended that the
user should install it outside the controlled area and use RI-indicated samples without
contacting them with storage phosphor screens directly.
However, as described above, the storage phosphor screen surface may be polluted by
radioisotope (RI), depending on the sample condition, since the instrument sticks the
sample to the3H-compatible storage phosphor screen surface and exposes it in an
auto-radiography experiment of the3H label sample.
The degree of superficial pollution of the storage phosphor screen is greatly influenced
by thedryness of thesample and doseof radioisotopein an experimentand may exceed
the limits mentioned in the section above.
When the instrument reads a storage phosphor screen with a polluted non-exposure
area, it may be polluted. The degree of such superficial pollution greatly differs with
users' operationconditions. Superficialpollution mayexceed thelimit mentionedabove.
Note:
As mentioned above, install this instrument in the RI controlled area if the user
uses RI-indicated samples that will be in direct contact with storage phosphor
screens.
Removal from the controlled
area
If it is necessary to move the instrument and its laboratory, which were installed and
have been used in the controlled area, from the controlled area, make sure that the degree ofthe superficial pollution is below the limits mentioned in Limit of superficial pollu-
tion, on page 17 above.
