Dubai simplifies radioactive material rules

  • United Arab Emirates: Thursday, September 17 - 2009 at 11:22

The Dubai Health Authority (DHA) has signed a memorandum of understanding with Dubai Civil Defence (DCD) to streamline rules governing the use of radioactive materials in medicine, The National has reported. The MoU will enable DHA to oversee the transportation and use of radiopharmaceutical drugs in hospitals and clinics across the emirate. Previously, health care providers and companies that used the materials for procedures such as radiotherapy, and those who transported them, needed permission from several authorities, including the civil defence.
