Context
In a global context characterized by growing uncertainty and an intensification of threats to health and security, the implementation of crisis management protocols has become a priority.
Among these threats, radioactivity, whether linked to a nuclear attack or an incident involving radioactive materials, is a major concern. Large gatherings, whether cultural, sporting or professional, attract large numbers of people and reveal vulnerabilities to this type of risk.
In order to respond to a particularly sensitive nuclear crisis, a healthcare facility has drawn up a specific protocol for dealing with victims within its structure. As part of this process, it chose to install radioactivity detection portals developed by Bertin Technologies. These advanced technological devices enable the detection of radioactive contamination and orphan sources within vehicles, loads, containers and pedestrian flows. The initiative is designed to identify and rapidly treat contaminated citizens. This is a pioneering site in France, paving the way for new perspectives in nuclear crisis management.
