CBRN Workshop – Radiological Situational Awareness for Emergency Responders

Welcome to a one-day workshop hosted by Mirion Technologies, designed for CBRN units within rescue services and other professionals working in this field.

This workshop provides valuable insights into our integrated detection and identification solutions, designed as a comprehensive global solution for enhancing situational awareness.

Our technologies support emergency responders, civil protection actors, and other security professionals in building a real-time and accurate overall picture of demanding and complex operating environments.

Join an upcoming scheduled class

We offer virtual classes and ones at Mirion locations around the world.

Workshop Content:

The workshop begins with a brief introduction to Mirion Technologies.

The workshop will be led by Marc Guerin (an expert from Mirion’s Defense & Security product lines), supported by Mirion’s local team. Please note that the primary language of the workshop is English.

This is followed by a scenario-based operational demonstration illustrating how our solutions form a comprehensive operational situational picture.

Morning Session – From Detection to Operational Understanding:

  • Identification of a suspected radioactive source or contaminated area during an operational mission using a response vehicle equipped with the SPIR-Ident Mobile solution for rapid situational and area assessment.
  • Simulated measurement of the impact area using the SPIR-Explorer solution. The demonstration shows how large areas can be mapped rapidly and reliable information produced to support operational decision-making.
  • Field reconnaissance and targeted on-site analysis using the SPIR-Pack backpack system.
  • On-scene isotope identification with the handheld SPIR-Ace RIID detector to support rapid and reliable operational assessment.
  • Enhancing responder safety through continuous radiation monitoring using the AccuRad PRD and RDS-32 personal radiation detectors.
  • Real-time data integration and visualization with the SpirVIEW Mobile solution, providing incident commanders and field personnel with a clear situational picture throughout the operation.

Participants will also have the opportunity to explore a complementary equipment portfolio, including the DMC 3000 and RDS-32 with new sensor options. Together, these solutions form a comprehensive ecosystem designed for radiation detection, responder protection, and dose monitoring and dosimetry management for the needs of emergency and preparedness organizations.

This structured approach illustrates how individual measurements collected in the field are connected and transformed into a clear overall picture that supports operational action, enabling safer and faster decision-making.

This approach helps participants understand how our solutions form a global, networked ecosystem in which individual measurements are integrated into a unified, comprehensive operational situational picture.

Lunch Break – Networking and Sharing Experiences

Afternoon Session – Hands-On Operational Training

  • In the afternoon session, participants will get hands-on experience with the equipment through practical exercises and live demonstrations.
  • Interactive discussions address real-world challenges in rescue operations and provide an open forum where we value and actively listen to operational feedback and field experiences.

This 2 day course will provide the foundation for using Python in Mirion’s Genie 2k Gamma Spectroscopy Software.

Mirion Technologies

This 2-day course is designed as an introduction to common air monitoring concepts, featuring detailed instructions on iCAM calibration and maintenance functions. The course begins with an introduction of the Mirion iCAM instrument, including a description of all components and theory of operation. Potential fault and alarm indicators will be discussed, as well as how to address problems that could arise during operation. After reviewing the hardware components, the iConfig software will be demonstrated to show the functionality of this power configuration tool. Once the iCAM setup is complete, the course will cover options and methods for calibrating the instrument, including alpha and beta calibrations along with airflow calibrations. Each step will be explained and students will be able to calibrate the instrument during a “hands-on” lab portion of the course. Other topics for discussion will include evaluation of calibration results and routine iCAM maintenance procedures. Approximately 40% of this course will be presented in lecture format, with the remaining time allocated for “hands-on” exercises and discussion.

Mirion Technologies

This 2-day course includes lectures and hands-on exercises to familiarize the attendee with the operating principles, setup, and calibration of the Mirion ARGOS™-5AB with ZEUS™ option. These calibration principles can be applied and extended to the GEM™-5 gamma exit monitor, the CRONOS® tool/object monitor, and the SIRIUS™-5 Hand/Cuff and Foot monitor. The steps required to properly setup, calibrate, alarm test, troubleshoot, and perform required maintenance on these monitors will also be covered. Click link below for full course description
