Radiological safety by design : an inspector's viewpoint with reference to the design of gamma radiographic equipment. V / W.S. Murdoch
Sumario: A brief review is given of the three basic designs of gamma radiographic equipment: the shutter, the torch and the remote control types. Analysis of failures of remote control cable projection equipment indicates that the main problem lies in the weakness of the cable conection. Suggestions are made for modifying the design of the equipment to eliminate the hazard associated with this weakness. It is concluded that one obstacle in radiological safety lies not in the lack of good designs, but in a resistance to change
