The use of lasers is continuing to expand in medical and industrial applications. Although not ionizing radiation as is typically associated with the primary Health Physics disciplines, it is still radiation and can present some serious safety concerns. More states are becoming aware of those concerns and starting to regulate the use of lasers. HPs are uniquely suited to provide the type of radiation safety and regulatory compliance oversight required in these applications. This course is to provide insight into the types of industries and facilities using lasers, the scope use, and associated laser safety program requirements.
