The purpose of the Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) Health Physics Historical
Instrumentation Museum Collection is to chronicle the scientific and
commercial history of radioactivity and radiation. It has been deemed the official repository for historical radiological instruments by
the Health
Physics Society, and the
Society has been generous in its financial support for the purchase of items. The collection is the property of the not-for-profit ORAU Foundation, and it is located at the Professional Training Programs (PTP) training facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Unless noted otherwise, this website only features items actually in the collection. If you have any technical or historically-related questions about the collection, or if you are interested in making a donation, contact Dr. Paul Frame via E-mail (paul.frame@orau.org) or by phone (865)-576-3388. Please do not ask about an appraisal - we do not attribute monetary values to items. Last updated:
