The toolkit, available at the Radiation Event Medical Management (REMM) web site (http://remm.nlm.gov), includes procedures for diagnosing and managing radiation contamination as well as guidance for using radiation medical countermeasures, and other information. Users also can register for automatic e-mail updates. Future plans include formatting the material for personal digital assistants.
