A. Persons who handle high energy beta emitting radioactive materials [ex. P-32] , gamma emitters [ex. Tc-99m] or use x-ray equipment should obtain a radiation body badge. Persons who handle over 10 mCi of high energy beta or gamma emitters may also need a ring badge. Persons using only H-3, C-14 and S-35 will not be provided badges as radiation from these low energy beta emitters can not be recorded on the badge monitor.
