The Radiation Safety Program provides comprehensive health physics support service to The University of 缅北禁地 community.
The radiation safety mission is to assist in maintaining safe and healthy settings for research and clinical activities. The program fulfills this mission by assisting the institution's Radiation Safety Committee, performing routine laboratory and clinical inspections of radioactive material, x-ray and laser use, providing personnel, area and environmental monitoring, and responding to emergency situations.
