Health Physics & Medical Physics Consulting
Radiation Safety Consulting Services, LLC (RSCS) provides health physics and medical physics consulting to clinics, hospitals, and licensees across Utah and the Intermountain West. We support the full scope of a radiation safety program — equipment performance, radiopharmaceutical therapy, shielding design, regulatory compliance, and radiation safety officer services — with the rigor of clinical physics and the practicality of day-to-day operations.
Services are delivered by board-certified physicists and registered state Qualified Experts, against current AAPM, ACR, and NCRP guidance.
Acceptance and annual performance evaluations across radiography, fluoroscopy, CT, mammography, MRI, nuclear medicine, and PET, performed as registered Qualified Experts where the state requires one. Reports carry protocol and dose review benchmarked against ACR and national reference levels, and are written so the people running the equipment can act on them.
Program support for facilities starting or expanding therapy with Lu-177, Ac-225, Pb-212, Y-90, and I-131: room and waste design, patient release calculations under Regulatory Guide 8.39, extravasation and event response, and the authorized user and RSO qualifications the license will require.
Shielding evaluations for new construction, remodels, equipment replacement, and changes in workload, to current NCRP and AAPM task group guidance. Diagnostic and interventional x-ray, CT, nuclear medicine hot labs, PET/CT, and radiopharmaceutical therapy rooms.
New applications, amendments, and renewals for medical, research, and industrial licensees — including the amendments a program needs before it can start a new therapeutic agent. Commitments are written to be proportionate, so the license describes a program you can actually run.
Named RSO, associate RSO, or physics support to an in-house RSO. Covers the audit, survey, dosimetry, sealed source, and waste program, the reporting a Radiation Safety Committee expects each quarter, and response when an incident or a dose event occurs.
Initial and annual training scaled to the facility — radiation workers, ancillary staff, and physicians — delivered on site or built as material your own staff can present. Programs are revised when the rules or your license change, rather than reused year to year.
RSCS work is led by board-certified physicists with doctoral training and experience across clinical medical physics, health physics, and radiation regulation. The individual who evaluates your facility is the individual who signs the report.
Tell us the modality, the facility, and the deadline; we will tell you what the evaluation involves and what it costs.
