Questions and answers

How is the isotope of concern used to choose medical countermeasures?

Determining the isotope of concern because each type of medical countermeasure is isotope specific. (paragraph 1)

How much radiological contamination can removing clothing and shoes remove?

Removing all clothing and shoes may remove up to 90% of radiological contamination. (paragraph 2)

What readings are acceptable for the ADM-300 before calibration?

Meter readings must be within the upper and lower values to be considered acceptable. (paragraph 1)

How long should the rate reading stabilize before it is recorded?

Allow the rate reading to stabilize for 20 seconds. (paragraph 4)

How should a probe be attached to the ADM-300?

When measuring alpha, beta, or x-ray, select the probe appropriate for the type of radiation being measured and attach it to the meter (when the meter is turned OFF). (paragraph 7)
