Early in 2001, serious accidental exposures involving patiens undergoing radiotherapeutic procedures were discovered in Panama. The government of Panama requested assistance from the IAEA under the terms of the Convention on Assistance in the Case of a Nuclear Accident or Radiological Emergency. The IAEA immediately notified the World Health Organization (WHO) and assembled and sent to Panama a…
