The objective of this publication is to provide a simple, logical system for ranking radioactive sources based on their potential to cause harm to human health and for grouping the practices in which these sources are used into discrete categories. While the categorization focuses on sealed sources, the methodology can also be used to categorize unsealed radioactive sources.
