Wear Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Event
In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness month, Dilon Technologies is hosting a presentation by a breast cancer survivor whose disease was diagnosed by Dilon's breast-specific gamma-imaging technology, but was missed by both mammography and ultrasound. The gathering will take place Thursday, Oct. 18, at 2:30 p.m. in ARC room 125. JLab staff and users are invited to attend. Raffle tickets will also be available for a handmade blanket in honor of breast cancer awareness, with all proceeds going to Beyond Boobs: https://www.facebook.com/beyondboobs

RadCon Posts Year-to-Date Doses
The Radiation Control Department is striving to make more information available to radiation workers through improvements in its electronic records system. Now, you can view your lifetime dose summary and access past annual dose reports, giving you quick access to summary information about your entire radiation dose history. In addition, the JLab Year-to-Date Dose for radiation workers is now available online. The YTD dose includes dose for the calendar year from your personal dosimeter (whole body dosimeter) plus any dose accrued from an RWP (Radiological Work Permit) by use of a SRPD (Self Reading Pocket Dosimeter). You may view this information through the JLab Year-to-Date Dose Record for Radiation Workers or on the Insight Page under Personal Information (View YTD dose information).
