Radiation Exposure. The Employer recognizes the need to maintain safe working conditions for the employees exposed to radiation. The Employer agrees to be bound by the rules and regulations established by the “Authority Having Jurisdiction” for safety on nuclear projects. Exposure to radiation shall be kept as low as possible. An employee who receives his maximum radiation exposure limits prior to the end of any regular work week (Monday through Friday) will be transferred to other suitable work without loss of pay or he shall be paid wages and fringe benefits for the week as if he had worked a full week.

Radiation Exposure. In order to minimize radiation exposure to bargaining unit personnel, it will be standard practice to utilize employees outside of classification, other non-bargaining unit employees, or outside contractors, regardless of work schedules of employees in the bargaining unit. Such tasks will be performed under adequate supervision with no intent of reducing regularly scheduled work hours available for those employees on the active bargaining unit payroll. The Company will notify the Union when using people outside their classification or if the Company brings in outside contractors to minimize radiation exposure. The Union will have representation on the ALARA Committee and will be privy to all information used in determining exposure limits.

Radiation Exposure. There will be radiation exposure to the breast(s) resulting from the CE-CBBCT study. The relationship between breast cancer and radiation has been studied extensively. It is known that female breast tissue is sensitive to ionizing radiation [16]. However, risk is highly influenced by previous radiation dose to the breast as there is a linear relationship between dose and risk, although the time intervals between exposures may reduce the cumulative effects. Of significant importance is the age at which exposure occurs. At high doses of 100cGy (1000 mGy), in a young woman, relative risk of developing breast cancer at a later age (typically 35-40 years later), is increased from 1.0 to

Radiation Exposure. There will be radiation exposure to the breast(s) resulting from the CE-CBBCT study. The relationship between breast cancer and radiation has been studied extensively. It is known that female breast tissue is sensitive to ionizing radiation [16]. However, risk is highly influenced by previous radiation dose to the breast as there is a linear relationship between dose and risk, although the time intervals between exposures may reduce the cumulative effects. Of significant importance is the age at which exposure occurs. At high doses of 100cGy (1000 mGy), in a young woman, relative risk of developing breast cancer at a later age (typically 35-40 years later), is increased from 1.0 to 1.4 (2.0 would be double the risk), which is equivalent to the increase in risk from other factors, such as: nulliparity, early age at first menarche (under age 11 years), and having a very late age at menopause [16]. There is no proof of “statistically significant increases below a dose of about 20 cGy (200 mGy)” … and further, “for exposure after the age of about 45 years there is little evidence that radiation increases the occurrence of breast cancer” [16]. The FDA mandates dose limits for screening mammography, because the benefit of screening mammography lies in the need for annual repeat exams to reap the benefits of early detection. The FDA sets a limit of 6 mGy for a two-view screening mammogram, for a 4.2 cm compressed breast with a 50/50 distribution of fat to glandular tissue [17]. The dose for a CBBCT scan to obtain a CNR of ~8, for a 4.2 cm breast equivalent phantom with a 50/50 distribution, is approximately 5.8 mGy. A CNR of ~8 has been determined to be the level needed for diagnostic adequacy (it is likely that screening dose will be more readily understood from the results of this study). There is no mandate that controls the dose for diagnostic mammography because the benefit/risk ratio is considerably higher in the diagnostic population. Also, the radiologist may require an unknown number of extra mammographic views in order to make a diagnostic decision. The American College of Radiology and the Radiologic Society of North America equates the effective whole body dose of a mammographic exam (0.7 mSv) to about 3 months of background radiation [18]. Analysis based on data from 220 diagnostic patients, which are representative of the range of breast thicknesses and densities found in a female population, has shown that the average mean glandular dose of one CBB...

Related to Radiation Exposure

  • Exposure For purposes of this Agreement and any other Transaction Document, in determining a party’s Exposure under this Agreement, all outstanding Transactions shall be deemed to be in effect at the time of such determination notwithstanding the Effective Date thereof as set out in the relevant Confirmation.

  • Reallocation of Pro Rata Share to Reduce Fronting Exposure During any period in which any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Revolving Credit Lender that is a Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.03, the “Pro Rata Share” of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of that Non-Defaulting Lender. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. If the allocation described in this clause (iv) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion).

  • Obligation to Cash Collateralize At any time there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

  • Reallocation of Applicable Revolving Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolving Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. Subject to Section 11.20, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

  • LC Exposure Determination For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination.
