Radiation Detection Equipment Calibration

Health Physics Consultants, LLC (HPCLLC) provides NIST-traceable calibration and certification for all radiation detection instruments used in medical facilities, including GM survey meters, ionization chambers, portable dose-rate meters, and personnel electronic dosimeters. Our health physicists perform annual calibrations and post-repair verifications in compliance with state and NRC regulations, delivering detailed reports accepted by DES and other regulatory agencies so your practice remains inspection-ready.

Shielding Designs + Surveys

HPCLLC offers expert radiation shielding design, pre-installation plan review, and post-construction shielding integrity surveys for diagnostic x-ray rooms, Dental CBCT units, fluoroscopy suites, and nuclear medicine hot labs. Using state-of-the-art modeling software and precise measurement techniques, we ensure your facility meets NCRP 147 and state shielding requirements while optimizing room layout and minimizing unnecessary construction costs—protecting staff, patients, and the public from unnecessary exposure.

Nuclear Medicine Surveys

Health Physics Consulting, LLC (HPCLLC) offers comprehensive annual and semi-annual nuclear medicine department surveys to ensure full compliance with NRC or Agreement State regulations (10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 35, and state equivalents). Our health physicists perform on-site evaluations of hot labs, imaging rooms, and radionuclide storage areas using calibrated survey meters, wipe-test analysis, and sealed-source leak testing. Services include restricted and unrestricted area dose-rate surveys, personnel dosimetry review, package receipt and wipe procedures verification, sealed source inventory and leak testing, hood flow and filter checks, and security assessments for RAM storage. HPCLLC provides a detailed report with all measurements, regulatory findings, required postings and labeling verification, and corrective recommendations—delivering everything your department needs for seamless NRC/State inspections, radiation safety program accreditation, and protection of staff, patients, and the public.

Annual Industrial X-Ray Inspections

HPCLLC provides comprehensive annual X-ray equipment compliance inspections using state-of-the-art portable X-ray diffractometers (XRD) and precision radiation survey instrumentation. Our health physicists and radiation safety officers conduct thorough on-site evaluations of all sealed and unsealed industrial X-ray sources—including analytical XRD/XRF systems, cabinet units, fluorescence analyzers, and high-energy radiographic devices. Inspections include leakage radiation surveys, interlock and safety device verification, shielding integrity assessments, and, when required, residual crystalline phase confirmation. Upon completion, HPCLLC delivers a detailed compliance report with measured dose rates, regulatory findings (21 CFR 1020, state-specific requirements), equipment registration status, and actionable recommendations—ensuring your facility remains fully compliant, minimizes radiation risk to personnel, and avoids costly regulatory violations.

Leak Tests of Sealed Sources

HPCLLC, in conjunction with Palmetto Counting Systems, performs fast, reliable leak testing and inventory of sealed radioactive sources (flood sources, dose calibrator reference sources, Cs-137 rods, etc.) in strict accordance with NRC and state regulations. We handle sampling, analysis, documentation, and electronic submission of results, with typical turnaround under one week—helping nuclear medicine, industrial, and imaging facilities maintain compliance without delays or regulatory surprises.

Radiation Safety Training

Our customized radiation safety training programs meet state and federal requirements for physicians, dentists, technologists, and ancillary staff. Delivered on-site or virtually, sessions cover ALARA principles, safe operation of x-ray and fluoroscopic equipment, personnel monitoring, pregnancy policy, emergency procedures, and regulatory updates. All participants receive documented certificates accepted during State and Joint Commission inspections.

Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) Services + Consulting

Let HPCLLC serve as your outsourced or part-time Radiation Safety Officer (RSO). We manage your entire radiation safety program—including policy writing, quarterly audits, personnel monitoring review, regulatory filings, and direct liaison with state and federal agencies — while remaining fully compliant with NRC, Agreement State, and x-ray registration regulations.
