This report has served as a major resource for responders to accidents and incidents involving human contamination by radionuclides. During the last three decades, a greater understanding has been achieved in the possible health effects in, and strategies for the immediate and late management of, contaminated individuals. NCRP Report No. 161, Management of Persons Contaminated with Radionuclides, provides guidance to those who may be called to respond to radionuclide contamination incidents. Such incidents may range from situations in which one or a few persons have received minor contamination while working in research, medical facilities, or industry to those in which large numbers of people are contaminated as a result of accidental or deliberate releases of large quantities of radionuclides. The focus of this Report is on the medical management of individuals exposed to and potentially contaminated with radionuclides in such incidents. Thus, it is directed to persons who would provide medical care and those who would perform radiation-safety functions. This Report is intended as an update and expansion of NCRP Report No. 65, Management of Persons Accidentally Contaminated with Radionuclides. This Report comprises two volumes, a Handbook and the Scientific and Technical Bases. The Handbook contains information for immediate "in-the-field" application to radiation contamination incidents. It is organized into four parts. Part A provides Quick Reference Information for incident responders based on supporting information given elsewhere in the Report. Part B contains essential information on medical and radiation-safety activities to be conducted at the site of a radionuclide contamination incident and prior to arrival at a hospital. Part C describes medical and radiation safety activities at the hospital. Part D provides guidance on medical follow-up of exposed persons and on handling contaminated decedents. This volume is produced on a synthetic material for durability and coil bound and color coded for ease of use. The Scientific and Technical Bases volume provides detailed scientific and technical information in support of the guidance in the Handbook. This volume is organized into seven sections and ten appendices. While much of the information in the Scientific and Technical Bases can be found through diligent examinations of other publications, few organizations involved in responding to radionuclide contamination incidents will have access to all these publications or the staff to research them.
