RADIOLOGICAL SAFETY OFFICER (RSO)

Ensuring Safe Radiation Practices

A Radiological Safety Officer (RSO) plays a pivotal role in safeguarding individuals, facilities, and the environment from the potential risks associated with ionizing radiation.

Why Ros is necessary ?

Preventing Unnecessary Exposure:

The primary mission of an RSO is to minimize unnecessary radiation exposure while maintaining necessary exposures as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA)

Expert Guidance:

RSOs guide workers on efficient and safe equipment usage. They develop and manage Radiation Protection Programs (RPPs), minimizing risks associated with hazardous materials

Quality Assurance:

RSOs oversee image quality, patient safety, and system policies. They answer to facility owners and inspectors, ensuring that all staff follow safety guidelines

Regulatory Compliance:

India’s Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB) mandates compliance with radiation safety regulations. The RSO ensures that facilities adhere to these norms, preventing undue risks to health and the environment
