Original Note:
Misleading. It is not "shielded Cat 4." The missing material is a GE-68 pin source, a small pin used to calibrate PET scanners in hospitals. If you stood next to it naked for a year you would absorb 10 millisieverts, equivalent to a normal CT scan. https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/event-status/event/2024/20241213en.html (Event Number: 57455) https://services.gehealthcare.com/gehcstorefront/p/E8690AE https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML1209/ML120970113.pdf
