Site Inspection & Radiation Survey

AGM provide radiation surveys service to ensure that radioactive contamination and/or exposure levels are as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) under authorization issued by regulatory authority (K. A. Care) No. (7 - 468 - 1) as the following:

Radiation Surveys

a) Area surveys performed with an appropriate survey instrument, used to detect exposure levels from either a removable or fixed source. Area surveys are performed in laboratories using x-ray machines or sealed sources, and also should be performed in conjunction with contamination surveys in laboratories using unsealed radioactive materials.

b) Contamination surveys are performed with wipe smear samples and are used to detect removable radioactive contamination, for example, radioisotopes such as 32P or 35S. All laboratories should be kept clean to avoid contamination.
