UAB has a very accurate and sophisticated inventory system that enables the EH&S Radiation Safety program (EH&S) to track all radioactive materials within the possession of authorized UAB personnel (physicians, professors, students, researchers, etc.).

The inventory system enables EH&S to track every stock material from the moment it arrives at UAB until its disposal. The system is important because it reduces the loss of radioactive material and enables UAB to remain in compliance with ADPH and USNRC regulations.

To ensure the system is working as designed, EH&S continually monitors inventory submissions and regularly audits users.
