Description

<p>The third subcommittee mainly discussed how to disseminate information on X-Ray accidents and how to roll out accident prevention initiatives to stakeholders. There have been various discussions on the role of academic societies in accident response, which is still in the trial-and-error stage. As a representative example of accident response, the medical accident investigation system based on laws and regulations aimed at preventing recurrence was noted. In the study of issues related to this accident, the Japan Society of Health Physics and the Japan Radiation Safety Management Society attempted to collaborate, and it is hoped that such attempts will be expanded with the understanding and cooperation of more related societies. As support for industry by academic societies, the WG collaborated with the nondestructive testing industry to organize issues and propose countermeasures. Involvement of external organizations to support facilities is also effective, and one suggestion is to consider providing external evaluation services for safety activities in the future. Based on these studies, the WG has made interim reports on its activities at the Hobutsu Seminar 2021 and the Japan Society of Health Physics 2022 Symposium. It is important to actively exchange opinions among the parties concerned at these opportunities. It is also necessary to consider what the society can do and contribute to the effective utilization and wide deployment of information and findings on accidents collected from users by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and other organizations.</p>
