    Occupational radiodermatitis occurred in three personnel due to Iridium-192 (Ir192) exposure during industrial radiography. Histological confirmation supported the diagnosis in these cases involving gamma ray projectors.

    Area of Science:

    • Occupational medicine
    • Radiation safety
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Industrial radiography utilizes gamma ray projectors for non-destructive testing.
    • Iridium-192 (Ir192) is a common radioisotope source used in these projectors.
    • Occupational exposure to ionizing radiation can pose health risks to personnel.

    Observation:

    • Three cases of occupational radiodermatitis are presented.
    • The affected personnel were handling an Ir192 gamma ray projector.
    • Clinical presentation and exposure circumstances were documented.

    Findings:

    • Diagnosis of radiodermatitis was confirmed histologically.
    • The skin lesions were attributed to Ir192 exposure.
    • The nature and operational use of the industrial radiography machines were detailed.
