Module 104 Internal Dose Control 
Lesson Plan 
Instructor's Notes 
instrument response time will 
determine the level of 
contamination that can be detected. 
Failing to sur vey properly can h ave 
the same results as not surveying at 
all. Contamina tion may go 
undetected and may be tracked out 
of the radiological area. Once 
outside the radiological area, the 
contamination may be transferred 
from surface to surface. This 
transfer of contamination could 
result in uranium ending up inside 
your body, the body of a co- 
worker, or even the bodies of your 
family members and friends. The 
potential for spreading undetected 
contamination should always be 
kept in mind when performing 
self-monitori ng. 
iv. 
Interference from Radon 
One of the problems encountered 
when monitoring for contamination 
is interference from radon and its 
decay products.
