Subject: LOSS OF TWO 350 MICROCURIE IODINE-125 SEALED SOURCES (SEEDS)    

Discussion:

On January 3, 1996, the licensee reported the loss of two 350 microcurie 
(.01 GBq) iodine-125 seeds. The licensee received 118 seeds on December  
27, 1995, from its source supplier (Amersham) and used 93 seeds for a    
permanent prostate implant on January 2, 1996. The 93 implanted seeds    
were verified with x-rays after surgery on January 2, 1996. Following    
surgery an inventory of the remaining (unused) seeds was performed and   
the loss of 2 seeds was identified. The licensee's RSO performed direct  
radiation surveys of the surgical suite and linens and did not locate the
missing seeds. The licensee assumes that the seeds were disposed of in   
its hazardous biological waste container.                                

Regional Action:

The inspection staff will review the licensee's 30 day report, required  
by 10 CFR 20.2201, and determine appropriate followup actions. The State 
of Wisconsin and NMSS were notified.
