Radiation Protection: The Essential Guide for Canadian Technologists (17-7)
Radiation Protection: The Essential Guide for Canadian Technologists - First Edition was written specifically for Canadian Radiation Control Technicians (RCT) or Canadian Radiation Protection Technologists (RPT). The specific regulations and recommendations pertaining to radiation protection in Canada, including CANDU reactors is addressed in the textbook. A Canadian version of the learning objectives described by the National Registry of Radiation Protection Technologists (NRRPT) were used as a basis for the content of the book. The goal of the book is to provide technical information for those who wish to become RPT’s in Canada and eventually, NRRPT. The text describes and provides the student over 140 examples of common calculations, and over 240 homework problems. Instrument descriptions and selection criteria, basics of dosimetry and performance of radiation measurements of ionizing radiation are covered in detail. The textbook covers the multiple skill sets are necessary to implement the radiation control measures needed in a given situation.

About Thomas E. Johnson

Thomas E. Johnson, PhD, CHP, NRRPT, CLSO, has performed extensive research and taught in diverse areas of radiation safety including environmental, uranium mining and non-ionizing over the last 25 years. He has worked in consulting, in nuclear power and industry. Dr. Johnson served 6 years active duty in the US Navy, and 14 years as a reservist in the US Air Force. He served as a nuclear enlisted Machinist Mate (ELT) on the USS Cavalla. He separated from the USAFR as a Major, and his last assignment was with the Air Force Radiation Assessment Team. He has authored or co-authored over 38 peer reviewed papers, three textbooks, one reference book, over 40 proceedings publications, mentored over 40 graduate students, and is responsible for teaching 5 graduate classes. He has been the principal investigator for multiple research projects funded by the Department of Defense, Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Department of Energy, Department of Agriculture, NIOSH, and other agencies.

About Francis E. Tourneur

Frank Tourneur P.Eng., CHP, has 35 years of radiation safety experience as applied to nuclear, medical, and academic settings. Frank started his career with Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd working at the Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories site as a Senior Reactor Shift Engineer. In the early 90’s Frank transitioned to the Radiation Safety Department providing support to several nuclear facilities eventually becoming Section Head of the Radiation Safety Training emergency Preparedness, and Documentation section. In 1999 Frank certified as a Health Physicist through the American Board of Health Physicists. From 2000, Frank moved to Toronto to take on the role of Corporate Radiation Safety Officer at the University Health Network, Canada’s largest healthcare network, eventually becoming Senior Director of Risk and Radiation Safety. Frank has served as a Board member of the Canadian Radiation Protection Association and sits on the Canadian Standards Association Technical Committee N292 on radioactive waste and N1600, “General requirements for nuclear emergency management programs.” Frank was involved with the implementation of the Canadian version of the NRRPT exam in 2005 and has provided preparation courses for NRRPT Candidates.
