In the United States there are several thousand devices containing high-activity radiation sources licensed for use in areas ranging from medical uses such as cancer therapy to safety uses such as testing of structures and industrial equipment. Those radiation sources are licensed by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and state agencies. Concerns have been raised about the safety and security of the radiation sources, particularly amid fears that they could be used to create dirty bombs, or radiological dispersal device (RDD). In response to a request from Congress, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission asked the National Research Council to conduct a study to review the uses of high-risk radiation sources and the feasibility of replacing them with lower risk alternatives. The study concludes that the U.S. government should consider factors such as potential economic consequences of misuse of the radiation sources into its assessments of risk. Although the committee found that replacements of most sources are possible, it is not economically feasible in some cases. The committee recommends that the U.S. government take steps to in the near term to replace radioactive cesium chloride radiation sources, a potential "dirty bomb" ingredient used in some medical and research equipment, with lower-risk alternatives. The committee further recommends that longer term efforts be undertaken to replace other sources. The book presents a number of options for making those replacements.

A high-resolution real-time radiography (RTR) system was designed for aerospace component x-ray inspections in the 20 to 300 kV range. Particulate and glass x-ray converters, image intensifiers, and video camera components were performance tested for resolution greater than 10 lp/mm, dynamic range greater tha 1000, contrast sensitivity of 1%, and image size of 12 x12 in. A breadboard RTR system, constructed with optimized components, produced 1024 x 1024 pixels per image with 8 bits per pixel. Computer controlled optical zooming achieved horizontal fields of view from 12.8 to 0.5 in. and corresponding resolutions of 3 to 80 pixels mm. Conceptual high-resolution RTR prototype systems were designed using the test results. Keywords: Real-time radiography; Display screens; X-ray converters.

The purpose of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility of a low cost, real-tirne radiographic inspection technique for Cast Ductile from (CDI) castings which can provide both standard inspection images and three dimensional positional information of image features. The feasibility of this project was demonstrated by real time radiographic experiments on a smaller object at 150 kV x-ray energy and by tangential x-ray imaging of an actual 3% CDI projectile at 280 kV x-ray energy. The greater sensitivity of the new detector technology introduced in this development project makes it possible to use significantly lower x-ray energy than would normally be required for the inspection of such castings. This is an important achievement because the cost of radiographic inspection equipment and facilities is directly correlated with the x-ray energy level. For data display, a new tangential technique for the collection of radiographic data is combined with a Multi Planer Reconstruction (MPR) image display (first introduced in a recent Omega NSWC SBlR). This is used to show both the standard and three-dimensional inspection information. This combination of enhanced detectors, tangential scanmng and data display makes possible an enhanced, cost effective, radiographic inspection system which can identify both the features and their position in three-dimensional space in the dense CDI material.
