[Histonet] Radioactive specimens policy

[Amanda Reichard]

Good morning everyone!

Would anyone be willing to share their policy/procedure for radioactive specimen acceptance, transport, storage, and disposal?
We are currently revising our policy and would like to see what precautions, if any, other institutions establish in the laboratory.

Thanks in advance!
