All medical use of ionizing radiation at The University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics (UIHC) must conform to the current requirements for using radiation producing equipment and radioactive materials in or on humans for medical diagnosis, therapy, and human subject research. Contact information and areas of expertise can be found on the Contact Us page. Documentation Radiation Safety Guide - Medical Radioactive Waste Training For further training and registration information, go to EHS Safety Training.
