Qualified Expert Services
In the State of Utah you must have your radiation generating equipment inspected regularly by registered Qualified Experts (QE). Qualified Experts in the State of Utah are defioned as (UT Administrative Code R313-16-215):
"Qualified expert" means an individual having the knowledge and training to measure regulatory parameters on radiation machines, to evaluate radiation safety programs, to evaluate radiation levels, and to give advice on radiation protection needs while conducting inspections of radiation machine facilities registered with the Department. Qualified experts are not considered employees or representatives of the Division of Radiation Control or the State.
Registration as a QE only ensures that the individual is knowledgeable and accountable to the State for regulated activities. Many QEs may not have training nor experience in issues such as image quality, radiation dose calculations, etc. While all individuals must be QE's to provide services within the State of Utah, not all QEs are required to be Certified Health Physicists or Certified by the American Board of Radiology.
