Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive medicines that are essential in order to perform Nuclear Medicine Scans on patients.

Radiopharmaceuticals must be prepared according to manufacturers package inserts. Deliveries of radiopharmaceuticals will incorporate sufficient lead or high-density metal shielding to comply with all applicable federal and/or state standards relating to shipment of radioactive materials. Shipping containers must comply with state and federal regulations. This includes DOT, DOE, USNRC, and ICC regulations and standards.
