The extensive features of the Radiation Event Medical Management Web site include information on diagnosing and managing radiation contamination and guidance on treatment with antiradiation drugs.

The site describes various kinds of radiation events, including those involving a nuclear weapon or a radiological dispersal device such as a “dirty bomb.”

The diagnosis and management guidance encompasses the initial steps to take at an event site or medical facility and significant steps in caring for patients (U.S. Health and Human Services Department release, March 8).

That's why I suggest people find surplus Dosimeters with the Quartz fiber indicator needle.
