Does anyone know what the usual radiation level should be as detected by a Geiger counter for someone who has just had a PET scan?
This isn't something easy to find in searches.
I ask b/c I was just looking at pictures and video I'd taken of my Geiger counter next to someone who had just had a PET scan. In the moment I hadn't noticed the decimal point, b/c I never see readings that high. I'd read it as 5.68 u/Sv/hr and it was really 56.8 u/Sv/hr
