Abstract This set of six information sheets for facilitating hazard analysis in the field of nuclear medicine was compiled by a multidisciplinary committee comprising various institutions and experts, following a survey on radiation protection conducted in the Ile-de-France region. The sheets address the following topics: relevant legislation; in vivo diagnosis other than by means of positron emission tomography; in vivo diagnosis using fluorine 18 positron emission tomography; outpatient iodine 131 therapy; in-hospital iodine 131 therapy; follow-up of nuclear medicine patients.
