This publication, prepared by the International Atomic Energy Agency, examines a significant radiological incident in Hueypoxtla, Mexico, in December 2013. The incident involved the theft of a teletherapy unit containing a Category 1 cobalt-60 radioactive source. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the event, including the response actions taken by Mexican authorities and dose assessments for individuals exposed to the radioactive source. It discusses the legal and regulatory framework, national and international response efforts, and lessons learned to enhance the safety and security of radioactive materials. This work serves as a critical resource for organizations involved in radiation protection and nuclear safety, aiming to mitigate risks associated with the transport and use of radioactive materials.
