Section 459.5933 - Electronic brachytherapy devices: Calibration of dosimetry system1. For an electronic brachytherapy system, calibration of the dosimetry system must include the source and energy in use and must use an established protocol such as the TG-21 protocol established by the American Association of Physicists in Medicine.2. A registrant shall ensure that a dosimetry system is available to take measurements during a quality assurance check. This system may be the same system used for calibrating the electronic brachytherapy system pursuant to NAC 459.5932.3. A registrant shall keep a record of each calibration, intercomparison and comparison of the dosimetry system for the duration of the registration. The record must include:(a) The date of the calibration, intercomparison or comparison;(b) The model number and serial number of the system which was calibrated, intercompared or compared;(c) The name of the person who performed the calibration, intercomparison or comparison; and(d) If an intercomparison is performed, evidence that the intercomparison was performed by, or under the direct supervision of, the authorized medical physicist for electronic brachytherapy of record.4. A registrant shall furnish a copy of all survey and calibration records to the Division within 30 days after the completion of the survey or calibration.Nev. Admin. Code § 459.5933
