Abstract
The report discusses the extent of the use of radium in products available to the public. It is an attempt to consolidate information pertaining to these products so that their potential health implications can be put into perspective. A greater awareness is needed to protect the public from potential exposure to consumer radium. The extent and hazards of the use of these products should be understood by all public health agencies.
