X-Ray Safety Program

The X-Ray Safety Program is intended to assist the university community in the safe use of x-ray emitting devices. The policies and procedures in the program help provide guidance in the effective control of x-ray hazards, assist in compliance with all applicable regulations and codes, and keep radiation exposures as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA). 

All persons who possess or use x-ray emitting devices on Â鶹´«Ã½â€™s campuses must comply with the policies and procedures in the Â鶹´«Ã½ X-Ray Safety Program. 

All x-ray emitting devices on Â鶹´«Ã½ campuses must be purchased, permitted, transferred, and disposed of appropriately under the approval and guidance of the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO). The purchase of all x-ray emitting devices must adhere to the Health Canada Radiation Emitting Devices Act and Regulations.
