## Summary

**Sets numeric dose thresholds that make radiation from extravasation in nuclear medicine a reportable "medical event".** It directs the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to revise 10 C.F.R. §35.3045(a)(1) within 120 days to add a new provision addressing extravasation. That provision would treat as a medical event either a 0.5 sievert (50 rem) dose to the 5 cubic centimeter volume of tissue with the highest absorbed dose during residence time or a 0.5 sievert (50 rem) shallow dose to the contiguous 10 square centimeters of skin with the highest absorbed dose during residence time. The regulatory revision would take effect 18 months after enactment and the act includes no appropriations, penalties, or extra enforcement beyond mandating the rule change. *It does not authorize new spending or penalties and therefore is not expected to affect federal outlays.*
