Under the Atomic Energy Act, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is responsible for regulating uses of radioactive material including radio pharmaceuticals. The NRC requires all nuclear medicine facilities to be licensed. The license assures that the facility has a radiation protection program to protect both the patients and the staff. In addition, the staff must meet certain standards of training and experience before they are allowed to administer radioactive material to patients. Each state has one or more radiation programs that ensure safe use of radioactive materials. The NRC has transferred regulatory authority over the use of this material to 34 NRC Agreement States. In these states, the regulatory authority inspects the facility to ensure the staff is trained properly and the equipment is operating safely. The FDA s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research regulates the radio pharmaceuticals, ensuring effectiveness and patient safety. The mission of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is to develop and promote measurement, standards, and technology to enhance productivity, facilitate trade, and improve the quality of life. Although a non-regulatory federal agency, NIST develops the standards for correct patient dosage of radiopharmaceuticals.
