Applications
An AERB-compliant end-of-life route for every sealed source on the nuclear-medicine department inventory
Routine end-of-life return
When a Co-57 flood source or Ge-68 line source has decayed beyond useful clinical activity, the radiation-safety officer initiates the return through Saxsons. Saxsons handles the AERB transport paperwork, decay-store coordination and pickup — the source leaves the facility cleanly.
QA-source replacement cycle
A QA reference set (Co-57, Co-60, Cs-137, Ba-133) supplied this year will eventually be replaced. The same Saxsons relationship that delivered the set handles the return of the previous set — one inventory line, one supplier, one paper trail.
NM department decommissioning
When an Indian NM department is restructured or relocated, the existing sealed-source inventory has to be cleared from the AERB facility licence. Saxsons supplies the decommissioning documentation the operator needs and removes the sources via the return service.
Equipment-upgrade source clear-out
PET system replacement, dose calibrator swap-out, or moving from SPECT to SPECT-CT often leaves a residual sealed-source inventory tied to the old equipment. Saxsons clears the inventory through the return service so the upgrade audit closes cleanly.
AERB inspection prep
A clean inventory of in-service sources, with documented decommissioning routes for retired ones, is a stronger AERB inspection narrative than a partial paper trail. The Saxsons return service supplies the missing-link documentation.
Source return after a clinical incident
When a source is taken out of service due to an incident (suspected damage, wipe-test failure, regulatory action), Saxsons supplies the controlled-collection logistics and the AERB-aligned chain-of-custody documentation.
Why Saxsons Radioactive Source Return Service?
The same Saxsons relationship that supplied the source handles its return at end of life. The radiation-safety officer does not need to find a separate disposal vendor — and Saxsons already knows the activity, the certificate and the facility on file.
Source return is mostly paperwork — shipping manifest, AERB notification, chain-of-custody, final disposal certificate. Saxsons supplies the paperwork end-to-end so the operator updates the AERB facility licence without re-authoring the dossier.
Operated in India by Saxsons Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. with AERB-licensed transport partners. No overseas teleassistance dependency, no import-export complications for a source that needs to leave a hospital cleanly.
