Reviews imaging protocols and dosimetry records are the responsibility of

• A. Health Physicist
• B. Nuclear Medicine Physician
• C. Radiation Safety Officer
• D. NM Technologist

Answer: (C)

The essential responsibility here is the Radiation Safety Officer. This role oversees the entire radiation safety program within a facility, which includes reviewing imaging protocols to ensure they are optimized for patient and worker protection and checking dosimetry records to verify exposures are within regulatory limits and properly documented. The RSO ensures adherence to ALARA principles, regulatory requirements, and internal policies, coordinating safety reviews and audits as needed. While the Nuclear Medicine Physician focuses on clinical imaging and interpretation, and the NM Technologist performs the imaging, their duties center on clinical workflow rather than maintaining the safety program. A Health Physicist may provide technical support, but the formal responsibility for reviewing protocols and dosimetry records belongs to the Radiation Safety Officer.
