The Radiological Accident in San Salvador
The accident at an industrial irradiation facility in San Salvador was quite different from that in Goiania, being limited to the external irradiation of workers. However, it did result in a fatality, as had similar accidents in Italy in 1975 and in Norway in 1982. There are more than 160 industrial irradiation facilities around the world that are as large as or larger than the one in San Salvador, and some of these are in countries that lack adequate infrastructures for radiation protection. An international review was undertaken to document the facts of the accident and to define generic lessons for the benefit of those having safety responsilbilities for such facilties. (Jml)
