Remote radiation handling tool, manual (A hand-held device designed to allow an individual to pick up and/or manipulate a radiation source, radiopharmaceutical, or other radioactive materials without physically touching it. It is typically a simple tong-like configuration with gripping jaws at the distal end and long handles that when gripped together exert pressure on the jaws so as to hold the object. It therefore reduces radiation exposure by increasing the distance between the operator's hands and body and the radioactive source.)
