Conclusions
1. It is shown that the technological process and organization of the working places can be corrected on the basis of quantitative radiation-hygienic evaluation of99mTc generators.
2. To improve working conditions and to reduce the dose of irradiation of the staff, protective boxes must be used. The location of the generator must be additionally protected by BS-50 lead blocks, and the examination window with TF-15 lead glass.
